Identify the segment in the sentence that contains a grammatical error.
I wondered why both the wife of Lord Easton had left him.

Correct option is D

The incorrect segment is "both the wife."
Explanation:
· "Both" is used to refer to two people or things, but "wife" is singular, so "both" cannot be used here.
· The correct phrase should be "both the wives" if referring to two wives, or simply "the wife" if referring to one.
Correct Sentence: I wondered why the wife of Lord Easton had left him. (If referring to one wife)
OR
I wondered why both the wives of Lord Easton had left him. (If referring to two wives)
Grammatical Rule Used:
· "Both" is always used for two things and must be followed by a plural noun (e.g., "both the books," "both the hands").
· If referring to a single person or object, "both" cannot be used.
Explanation in Hindi:
· "Both" का उपयोग हमेशा दो व्यक्तियों या वस्तुओं के लिए किया जाता है।
· "Wife" एकवचन (singular) है, इसलिए "both" का उपयोग यहाँ गलत है।
· सही वाक्य:
· यदि एक पत्नी की बात हो रही है: "the wife of Lord Easton had left him."
· यदि दो पत्नियों की बात हो रही है: "both the wives of Lord Easton had left him."
