Spot Error

Question:

Choose which part of the following sentence has an error:

The lawyer sited /(A) many examples /(B) and evidences /(C) to prove his case /(D).

Options:

A

B

C

D

Correct Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → A

The word "sited" in part (A) is incorrect in the context of the sentence. It should be "cited." "Cited" is the past tense of the verb "cite," which means to refer to or quote as evidence or justification. In the sentence, the lawyer is referring to examples and evidence to support his case, so the correct word is "cited."
