    Question

    The sentence below is divided into four segments. Select the option that has an error of tense.
    I has been visiting my family and relatives during the winter vacation.

    A.

    during the winter vacation

    B.

    family and relatives

    C.

    visiting my

    D.

    I has been

    Correct option is D

    Option (d) contains an error.
    The error lies in the incorrect use of the auxiliary verb “has” with the subject “I.” The correct helping verb with "I" is "have". The Present Perfect Continuous tense structure is:
    Subject + has/have been + verb-ing
    Since the subject is “I,” we must use “have been.”
    Correct sentence: I have been visiting my family and relatives during the winter vacation.
    Grammatical rule used:
    ➤ In the Present Perfect Continuous Tense, "has" is used with third-person singular (he, she, it) and "have" is used with all others (I, you, we, they).
    Example:
    · Incorrect: She have been working hard.
    · Correct: She has been working hard.
    Information Booster:
    Using the correct form of “has” or “have” with different pronouns is essential for forming proper tenses.
