The sentence is divided into four segments: (A), (B), (C), and (D). Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If the sentence is both grammatically and contextually correct, select “No error” as the correct answer.

This is between you and (A)/ I and we should not (B)/ let anyone else (C)/ get involved in it. (D)

Correct option is B

Correct Answer: (b) B
Sentence:
"This is between you and (A)/ I and we should not (B)/ let anyone else (C)/ get involved in it. (D)"
Error in Part (B):
The phrase "between you and I" is incorrect.
Grammatical Rule:
Use object pronouns after prepositions.
· Prepositions such as between, to, for, with, by, etc., require object case pronouns.
· "I" is a subject pronoun (used as the subject of a verb).
· "Me" is an object pronoun (used after prepositions or as the object of a verb).
Incorrect Usage:
· Between you and I (incorrect) (“I” is in the subject case, which is incorrect after a preposition)
Correct Usage:
· Between you and me (“me” is the correct object pronoun)
Corrected Sentence:
"This is between you and me, and we should not let anyone else get involved in it."
Sentence Structure:
· Introductory clause: This is between you and me
· Main clause: we should not let anyone else get involved in it
Example of the Rule in Action:
· He gave the tickets to she and I. (incorrect)
· He gave the tickets to her and me.
Final Answer:
(b) B — because "I" should be replaced with "me" to follow the correct objective case after the preposition "between."
