Identify the part of the sentence that contains an error: Everyone must bring their own identity card, according to traditional exam grammar.
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. must bring their
Explanationव्याख्या
In modern English, singular “they
their” with “everyone” is widely accepted.
However, traditional competitive-exam grammar may expect singular agreement, such as “his or her.” Thus, in that conventional exam framework: Everyone must bring his or her own identity card.
आधुनिक English में “everyone” के साथ singular “they/their” स्वीकार्य है। लेकिन कई traditional competitive exams में “everyone” को singular मानकर “his or her” अपेक्षित किया जाता है। इसलिए exam-oriented correction “his or her own identity card” होगा।
