Question

Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, select 'No error'.
Ram ran back to the/ window to see the bars dangling / a few feet before the ground.

A.

window to see the bars dangling

B.

Ram ran back to the

C.

No error

D.

a few feet before the ground.

Correct option is D


Option (d) contains an error.
Explanation: The phrase “a few feet before the ground” is incorrect in this spatial context. The correct preposition is “above” as the bars are hanging higher than the ground.
· Grammatical Rule Used:
· Preposition Usage: “Before” is used for time or sequence; “above” is used for spatial height or elevation.
· Explanation of the rule in Hindi:
· "Before" का प्रयोग समय या क्रम के लिए होता है। ऊँचाई बताने के लिए "above" का प्रयोग होता है – जैसे "above the ground" (ज़मीन से ऊपर)।
Meanings of the options:
· (a) window to see the bars dangling – Correct usage.
· Hindi: खिड़की से लटकती हुई सलाखों को देखने के लिए – सही प्रयोग।
· (b) Ram ran back to the – Introductory clause, correct.
· Hindi: राम दौड़ कर वापस गया – सही वाक्यांश।
· (c) No error – Incorrect as error exists in (d).
· Hindi: कोई त्रुटि नहीं – गलत विकल्प।
· (d) a few feet before the ground – Incorrect preposition.
· Hindi: ज़मीन से कुछ फीट पहले – "before" गलत है, "above" होना चाहिए।
