    Question

    Identify the segment in the sentence, which contains the grammatical error.
    We reserved tickets for a journey on train for the next morning for my sisters and me.

    A.

    for a journey on train

    B.

    for my sisters and me

    C.

    for the next morning

    D.

    We reserved tickets

    Correct option is A

    The segment "for a journey on train" contains the grammatical error.
    · The correct form should be "for a journey by train," using the preposition "by" to indicate travel via a particular method of transportation.
    · Grammatical rule: The phrase "by train" is standard in English to describe the mode of transportation used.
    · Example: We traveled by train from Paris to Lyon, smoothly using the correct preposition for travel modes.
    Thus, the correct sentence should be: "We reserved tickets for a journey by train for the next morning for my sisters and me."
