Question : Select the option that will improve the underlined part of the sentence. In case no improvement is needed, select ‘No improvement required’.
Either Supriya or Nikunj are lying off this situation.
Option 1: is lying in relation to
Option 2: has lie on
Option 3: No improvement required
Option 4: were lying to
Correct Answer: is lying in relation to
Solution : The correct choice is the first option .
The error lies in the subject-verb agreement and the incorrect use of the preposition. The sentence can be improved by replacing the underlined phrase with " is lying in relation to ".
This option contains the correct auxiliary verb (is) to maintain the subject-verb agreement in the case of either/or and the correct phrase (in relation to) to make the sentence grammatically accurate.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Either Supriya or Nikunj is lying in relation to this situation."
