Identify the sentence with the INCORRECT usage of an adverb.

Correct option is A

Option (a) contains an error.
Explanation of error:
· In the sentence "We visit often our grandparents," the adverb "often" is placed incorrectly. According to standard word order in English grammar, adverbs of frequency (like often) must come before the main verb unless the verb is a form of "to be." Correct placement: "We often visit our grandparents."
Grammatical rule used:
· Adverbs of frequency are placed before the main verb (except the verb 'to be').
Explanation of the grammatical rule in Hindi:
· अवधि को दर्शाने वाले क्रिया विशेषण (जैसे – often, always, sometimes) मुख्य क्रिया से पहले रखे जाते हैं। यहाँ "visit" से पहले "often" आना चाहिए।
· Example:
Incorrect – We visit often our grandparents.
Correct – We often visit our grandparents.
Meanings of the other options:
· (b) Sita often visits her grandparents – Correct placement of the adverb "often" before the verb "visits".
Hindi meaning: सीता अक्सर अपने दादा-दादी से मिलने जाती है
· (c) She hardly ever visits her grandparents – “Hardly ever” is a valid phrase showing rare occurrence.
Hindi meaning: वह बहुत कम ही अपने दादा-दादी से मिलने जाती है
· (d) Mihir sometimes visits his grandparents – "Sometimes" correctly placed before the verb "visits".
Hindi meaning: मिहिर कभी-कभी अपने दादा-दादी से मिलने जाता है
