Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence have errors, and some are correct. Find out which part of the sentence has an error. The number of that part is the answer. If a sentence is error-free, your answer is "No Error".
Neither he or his wife has arrived.
(1) has arrived
(2) Neither he
(3) No error
(4) or his wife
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (4)
Solution : The error lies in the fourth option of the question.
Neither...nor is used to show a negative correlation between two things. In this case, it's being used to indicate that neither he nor his wife has arrived, indicating that both of them are absent. Using or instead of nor here is grammatically incorrect.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Neither he nor his wife has arrived."
