Question : The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
The postman / delivers the letters / through hand, / door to door.
Option 1: The postman
Option 2: delivers the letters
Option 3: door to door
Option 4: through hand
Correct Answer: through hand
Solution : The fourth option is correct.
The error lies in the use of the preposition "through" before "hand" . The correct preposition in this context is by , which indicates the means or method of delivery. Therefore, it should be by hand instead of through hand to convey the intended meaning of delivering letters manually.
The corrected sentence should be: " The postman delivers the letters by hand, door to door ."
