Question

Select the most appropriate option to substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence.
My mom made her muffins, but she didn’t eat none.

A.

she did eat none

B.

she did ate many

C.

she didn’t eat any

D.

she didn’t ate any

Correct option is C

The correct substitution of the highlighted segment is "she didn’t eat any."
Explanation:
· The phrase "didn’t eat none" contains a double negative error (didn’t + none).
· In standard grammar, two negatives in the same sentence cancel each other out and make the meaning positive, which is incorrect in this context.
· "None" should be replaced with "any" to maintain proper negation.
Grammatical Rule Used:
· In negative sentences, "any" is used instead of "none" after verbs.
· Incorrect: She didn’t eat none. ❌
· Correct: She didn’t eat any. ✅
Example:
· ❌ I don’t have no money.
· ✅ I don’t have any money.
