Question

Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. Select the option that contains a grammatical error. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer.
Her concerts / are very admired / by the foreigners / no error.

A.

Her concerts

B.

by the foreigners

C.

No error

D.

are very admired

Correct option is D

Option (d) contains an error.
Explanation of error:
· The phrase “very admired” is grammatically incorrect. The word “very” is used to modify adjectives or adverbs of degree (e.g., very good, very fast), not past participles used as adjectives unless paired with modifiers like “much,” “highly,” or “greatly.”
· The correct usage should be: "highly admired" or "much admired."
· Correct sentence: Her concerts are highly admired by the foreigners.
Grammatical rule used:
Use "much" or "highly" with past participles like admired, respected, regarded.
Example: He is highly respected in the community.
�� Information Booster:
�� Avoid using “very” directly before past participles unless the participle has been fully adjectivized (e.g., very tired, very pleased).
