    Question

    Identify the segment in the sentence that contains a grammatical error.
    I immediately realised that my deductions had being all wrong.

    A.

    that my deductions

    B.

    all wrong

    C.

    I immediately realised

    D.

    had being

    Correct option is D


    The incorrect segment is "had being."
    Explanation:
    · "Being" is the present participle (V4) form and cannot be used after "had" (past perfect auxiliary verb).
    · The correct verb should be "been" (past participle, V3).
    Correct Sentence: I immediately realised that my deductions had been all wrong.
    Grammatical Rule Used:
    · "Had" is always followed by a past participle (V3) verb in past perfect tense.
    · "Being" is a present participle (V4) and cannot be used in past perfect tense.
    Explanation in Hindi:
    · Past Perfect Tense में "had" के बाद हमेशा "been" (V3) आता है।
    · "Being" (V4) का उपयोग यहाँ गलत है।
    · सही वाक्य: "had been all wrong."
