Question : Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose 'No Error'.
If I was your sister, I would have never slapped you.
Option 1: If I was your
Option 2: never slapped you
Option 3: sister, I would have
Option 4: No Error
Correct Answer: If I was your
Solution : The error lies in the first option.
Explanation : The sentence uses a hypothetical situation (subjunctive mood) where the speaker is imagining a scenario that is not true in reality. When expressing hypothetical situations or unreal conditions, especially when paired with "if", the subjunctive mood requires using "were" instead of "was" when referring to the singular pronouns such as "I", "he", "she", and "it".
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: " If I were your sister, I would have never slapped you."
