New: SSC Stenographer Application Form 2024 Released
Don't Miss: Month-wise current affairs
Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: gave you some advice,
Solution : The error lies in the first option.
The verb " gave " is incorrect in this context. The correct form should be "give" because it needs to match the infinitive "to" in the sentence. When the infinitive "to " is used, it is followed by the base form of the verb.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: If I want to give you some advice, would you be interested?
