Choose the part of the following sentence that contains an error:
The most important feature of our products are that they are all created by hand.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → of our products are that
The error lies in the lack of agreement between the main subject and the verb.
-
Identify the Main Subject: The subject of the sentence is "feature," which is a singular noun. It is followed by the prepositional phrase "of our products," but the subject of the verb remains "feature."
-
Identify the Verb: The verb used to agree with the subject is "are," which is plural.
-
Correction: Since the singular subject "feature" requires a singular verb, the verb "are" must be changed to "is."
The sentence should correctly read: The most important feature of our products is that they are all created by hand.
