    Question

    Identify the segment in the sentence that contains a grammatical error.
    The comedian / looked very funny that / the audience could not / control their laughter.

    A.

    Looked very funny that

    B.

    The comedian

    C.

    The audience could not

    D.

    Control their laughter.

    Correct option is A


    The segment containing the grammatical error is "looked very funny that."
    Explanation:
    The phrase “looked very funny that…” is grammatically incorrect. When expressing a result or consequence, the correct structure is “so... that.”
    Hence, it should be “looked so funny that…”
    Correct sentence: "The comedian looked so funny that the audience could not control their laughter."
    Grammatical Rule Used:
    So... that construction – Used to indicate cause and effect or result.
    Structure: So + adjective/adverb + that + result clause
    Explanation in Hindi:
    जब किसी कार्य या गुण का परिणाम बताया जाता है, तब “so... that” का प्रयोग होता है।
    यहाँ “funny” (adjective) के साथ “so” का प्रयोग ज़रूरी है – “so funny that…”
    Example:
    Incorrect: He was very tired that he fell asleep.
    Correct: He was so tired that he fell asleep.
    Other segments:
    · The comedian – हास्य कलाकार. (Correct.)
    · The audience could not – दर्शक नहीं कर सके. (Correct.)
    · Control their laughter – अपनी हँसी पर काबू. (Correct.)
