Correct Answer: When did you completed your graduation?


Solution : The second option is correct.

The segment that contains a grammatical error is: " When did you completed your graduation? "

The correct form should be: " When did you complete your graduation? "

The error lies in the use of the past tense verb completed after the auxiliary verb did . When forming questions in the past tense with did , the base form of the main verb should be used.
