Question

The following sentence has been divided into four segments. Select the segment that contains a grammatical error.
I am going / to home / soon after the / programme gets over.

A.

soon after the

B.

to home

C.

I am going

D.

programme gets over

Correct option is B

Option (b) contains an error.
Explanation: The word “home” does not require a preposition like “to” when used after verbs of movement.
Correct sentence: I am going home soon after the programme gets over.
Grammatical rule used:
“Home” acts as an adverb of place and should not be preceded by “to” in expressions like “go home”, “come home”.
Example: She came home late last night. (Not “to home”)
Information Booster: Use “to” only when “home” is used as a noun with an article or adjective, e.g., “to a new home”.
