Option 1: A
Option 2: B
Option 3: C
Option 4: D
Correct Answer:
A
Solution : The correct answer is option 1
Explanation:
- - The word 'commanders-in-chiefs' is used erroneously in the provided sentence.
- - We know that 'commanders-in-chief' is the plural version of 'commander-in-chief.'
- - For instance, he and a friend were the commanders-in-chief.
- - To amend the sentence, replace 'commander-in-chiefs' with 'commanders-in-chief.'
-
As a result, the correct sentence is
: The commanders-in-chief of all the three forces are coming for the ceremony.
- Consider the plural form of the following compound nouns:
- Bed-room & Bed-rooms
- Father-in-law & Fathers-in-law
- Step-daughter & Step-daughters
- Mother-in-law & Mothers-in-law
