Question

The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them contains an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options.
Mr. Vinu / has never / slept in / a igloo.

A.

slept in

B.

a igloo

C.

Mr. Vinu

D.

has never

Correct option is B


The segment "a igloo" contains a grammatical error.
· The article "a" is incorrect before "igloo" because "igloo" begins with a vowel sound ( /ɪ/). The correct article should be "an" instead of "a."
· Correct Sentence: Mr. Vinu has never slept in an igloo.
· Grammatical Rule Used: Use "a" before words that begin with a consonant sound and "an" before words that begin with a vowel sound.
· Explanation of the Rule in Hindi: "An" का प्रयोग उन शब्दों से पहले किया जाता है जो स्वर ध्वनि (vowel sound) से शुरू होते हैं, और "a" का प्रयोग व्यंजन ध्वनि (consonant sound) से शुरू होने वाले शब्दों से पहले किया जाता है।
· Example:
✔ He saw an elephant in the zoo. (Correct – "elephant" starts with a vowel sound) ✔ She bought a car yesterday. (Correct – "car" starts with a consonant sound)
