He is / an expert / in / an English literature.

A.

an English literature

B.

in

C.

an expert

D.

He is

Correct option is A

Option (a) contains an error.
· The phrase "an English literature" is incorrect because "literature" is an uncountable noun and does not require an article ( an or a).
· The correct phrase should be "English literature" without any article.
Grammatical rule used:
· Uncountable nouns like literature, information, advice, furniture do not take indefinite articles ( a/an).
