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."
They brought to themself this disaster.
(1) They brought
(2) to themself
(3) this disaster
(4) No error
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error is in the second option : to themself.
"To themself" is the part of the sentence that contains an error. The correct reflexive pronoun for "they" is "themselves", not "themself."
The preposition " to " is also changed to " upon " to fit in with the meaning of the sentence, conveying that the subject of the sentence is responsible for causing a disaster, and they did so to themselves.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "They brought upon themselves this disaster".
