Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If the sentence is free from error, select "No Error."
The patient (1) / was accompanied (2) / with his friend. (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The preposition " with " should be replaced with the preposition "by", as it is used in passive structure, followed by a noun or noun phrase. "Accompanied by" is used to refer to people, while " accompanied with" is used to refer to things.
The correct sentence is, "The patient was accompanied by his friend ."
