Correct option is C
The error lies in part (c): "who is very loyal him."
Explanation:
The preposition "to" is missing after the adjective "loyal." The correct phrase is "loyal to him" because "loyal" always takes the preposition "to" when referring to the object of loyalty.
Grammatical Rule Used:
Adjectives like "loyal," "faithful," "grateful," etc., require the preposition "to" to indicate the object of reference or loyalty.
Grammatical Rule in Hindi:
"loyal," "faithful," "grateful" जैसे विशेषणों के साथ हमेशा "to" का उपयोग किया जाता है ताकि यह संदर्भित वस्तु को सही तरीके से इंगित कर सके।
Correct Sentence:
The master punished the servant who is very loyal to him when he left the work unfinished.
Why the other options are correct:
· (a) The master: Correct. It introduces the subject of the sentence.
· (b) Punished the servant: Correct. The verb "punished" is appropriate and matches the tense of the sentence.
· (d) When he left the work unfinished: Correct. It correctly describes the reason for the punishment.
Example:
Incorrect: She is loyal him.
Correct: She is loyal to him.
