    Question

    Identify the part which contains an error.

    The vocalist / is endowed of / a lot of / talent.

    A.

    The vocalist

    B.

    is endowed of

    C.

    a lot of

    D.

    talent.

    Correct option is B

    The error lies in option (b).

    Explanation:

    • The phrase “endowed” is used to show that someone possesses a quality or talent, and it is followed by the preposition “with”, not “of”.
    • Therefore, “is endowed of” is grammatically incorrect. The correct expression is “is endowed with”.

    Correct Sentence:

    • The vocalist is endowed with a lot of talent.

    Grammatical Rule Used (English):

    • Endowed (meaning gifted) takes “with” to show possession of a quality: endowed with + quality/talent/ability.
    • Common correct patterns: endowed with talent, endowed with wisdom, endowed with beauty.

    Grammatical Rule Used (Hindi):

    • “Endowed” (प्रतिभा/गुण से युक्त) के साथ “with” का प्रयोग किया जाता है, “of” का नहीं।
    • इसलिए “endowed of” गलत है और “endowed with” सही है।

    Meanings of the parts/options:

    • (a) The vocalist – The singer (गायक/गायिका).
    • (b) is endowed of – Incorrect phrase; should be “endowed with” (गुणों से युक्त).
    • (c) a lot of – a large amount of (बहुत अधिक).
    • (d) talent – natural ability/skill (प्रतिभा).

    So the correct answer is (b)
