Question : Identify the segment in the sentence which contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, then select the option 'No error'.
When he goes on a business trip, he is usually taking his wife.
Option 1: No error
Option 2: he is usually taking his wife
Option 3: on a business trip
Option 4: When he goes
Correct Answer: he is usually taking his wife
Solution : The error lies in the second option .
The error lies in the verb tense. The sentence is describing a habitual action, so the present simple tense should be used. The correct form should be "he usually takes his wife". The use of the present continuous tense ("is usually taking") is inappropriate in this context.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: When he goes on a business trip, he usually takes his wife.
