The given sentence is divided into four segments. Select the option that has the segment with an adverbial usage error.

Correct option is B

Option (b) contains an error.
· Explanation: The misplacement of the adverb “politely” causes confusion in the sentence. “Politely” should describe how they skipped, and thus it should immediately precede or follow the verb “skipped.”
· The correct placement would be: “Andrew and Victoria skipped politely down the street near the apartment.”
· The current segmenting in option (b) separates the adverb from the verb it is supposed to modify, leading to incorrect sentence construction when the parts are put together.
Grammatical rule used:
· Adverbs of manner should be placed next to the verb they describe to maintain clarity and avoid ambiguity.
Explanation of the grammatical rule in Hindi:
· क्रिया विशेषण (जैसे “politely”) को क्रिया (“skipped”) के पास रखना ज़रूरी है ताकि यह स्पष्ट हो कि वह क्रिया को ही विशेषित कर रहा है।
Example:
· Incorrect: Andrew and Victoria politely skipped down near the apartment the street.
· Correct: Andrew and Victoria skipped politely down the street near the apartment.
