Correct Answer: (3)


Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.

The error is in using the question tag "Isn't it?" after a future tense statement. This is incorrect because "isn't it?" is suitable for present tense statements. To maintain tense consistency, the appropriate question tag that should be used for a future tense statement is "Won't you?"

A question tag is a very short clause at the end of a statement that changes the statement into a question. A question tag is formed by inverting the subject and verb of a statement.

Therefore, the correct sentence is, "You will come to my party tomorrow, won't you? "
