    Question

    The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
    Communicating what / you felt / wasn’t always / easy in Rita.

    A.

    wasn’t always

    B.

    you felt

    C.

    easy in Rita

    D.

    Communicating what

    Correct option is C

    Option (c) contains a grammatical error.
    The error lies in the phrase "easy in Rita."
    The correct preposition should be "for" rather than "in."
    The phrase should be "easy for Rita," meaning that Rita found it difficult to communicate her feelings.
    The preposition "for" is used to indicate who is experiencing the ease or difficulty.
    The correct sentence should be: "Communicating what you felt wasn’t always easy for Rita."
    Grammatical rule used:
    · Prepositions with adjectives: The preposition "for" is typically used with adjectives like "easy" to indicate the person or thing affected by the action.
    Example:
    · Incorrect: The task was simple in John.
    · Correct: The task was simple for John.
