Question : The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
My granny says that / it is quite all right / to get married young, / though I do not absolute agree with her a bit on this.
Option 1: My granny says that
Option 2: though I do not absolute agree with her a bit on this.
Option 3: it is quite all right
Option 4: to get married young
Correct Answer: though I do not absolute agree with her a bit on this.
Solution : The error lies in the second option.
Explanation:
The error is in the phrase do not absolute agree . The correct adverb to use here is absolutely . Absolutely in this context emphasises the extent of the disagreement, modifying the verb agree to express a stronger degree of disagreement.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: My granny says that it is quite all right to get married young, though I do not absolutely agree with her a bit on this.
