Question

Identify the segment in the sentence that contains a grammatical error.
I do not like vegetables, or do I like fruits.

A.

like vegetables

B.

I do not

C.

or do I

D.

like fruits

Correct option is C


The incorrect segment is "or do I."
Explanation:
· The correct correlative conjunction should be "nor do I" instead of "or do I."
· When negating two ideas, "nor" is used instead of "or."
Correct Sentence: I do not like vegetables, nor do I like fruits.
Grammatical Rule Used:
· When using a negative statement, "nor" must be used instead of "or" when connecting two clauses.
· "Nor" is used after a negative clause to introduce another negative clause.
· The sentence follows the inverted word order (Nor + auxiliary verb + subject).
Explanation in Hindi:
· जब दो नकारात्मक विचारों (negative clauses) को जोड़ा जाता है, तो "or" की जगह "nor" का प्रयोग किया जाता है।
· सही वाक्य: "I do not like vegetables, nor do I like fruits."
