Question : Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, select 'No error.'
Before he could devote many more / thought to the matter, Pranav / had stepped up to him.
Option 1: before he could devote many more
Option 2: thought to the matter, Pranav
Option 3: had stepped up to him
Option 4: No error
Correct Answer: before he could devote many more
Solution : The error lies in the first option.
- The use of "many more" is incorrect in this context.
- The word "many" is not needed here. Instead, it should be "any more" to convey the idea that before Pranav could give additional thought to the matter, he had stepped up to him.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Before he could devote any more thought to the matter, Pranav had stepped up to him."
