Identify the error and choose the correct sentence:
I had bath in the morning.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → I had a bath in the morning
Article with "bath" and "shower":
- In "have a bath" and "take a shower", bath and shower are singular countable nouns, so they need the article "a".
- This sentence: "I had bath in the morning" leaves out the article; the correct form is "I had a bath in the morning", in the same past tense.
Example: After the long journey, he had a bath and went to sleep.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 1: I have bath every morning — Incorrect. The article "a" is still missing, and the tense and time are changed.
Option 3: I take shower in the morning — Incorrect. "Take shower" also lacks "a", and the tense is changed.
Option 4: I am having bath every morning — Incorrect. The article is missing, and the present continuous does not go with a habit ("every morning").
