    Question

    Identify the segment in the sentence which contains a grammatical error.
    None than you deserve credit for the success of this project.

    A.

    for the success

    B.

    deserve credit

    C.

    of this project

    D.

    None than you

    Correct option is D

    Option (d) contains an error.
    · The phrase "None than you" is incorrect. The correct phrase should be "None but you." The phrase "None but" means "no one except," which is the intended meaning in this context.
    · Grammatical rule used: The phrase "None but" is used to emphasize that no one other than the person mentioned is being referred to. The word "than" is used for comparisons, while "but" is used here to emphasize exclusivity.
    · Example: "None but the best will do." Here, "None but" correctly emphasizes that only the best is acceptable.
