Question

The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer.
My elder brother yesterday had took my Facebook password.

A.

my Facebook password

B.

yesterday had took

C.

My elder brother

D.

No error

Correct option is B

Option (b) contains an error.
Error: "had took" is grammatically incorrect.
Correction: It should be "had taken" instead of "had took".
Explanation: The past perfect tense requires the use of the past participle form of the verb. “Take” is the base form, “took” is simple past, and “taken” is past participle.
So, "had took" ❌"had taken" ✅ is the grammatically correct usage.
Grammatical rule used:
Past Perfect Tense = Had + Past Participle (V3)
Example:
· Incorrect: She had went home.
· Correct: She had gone home.
�� Grammar Booster:
Past perfect is used to describe an action completed before another past action or point in time. Never use simple past (V2) with “had”.
