Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If the sentence is free from error, select "No Error".
There is no money in (1) / the bank in Rajesh's and (2) / Reena's joint account. (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 2
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 2
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The word "Rajesh's" should be replaced with "Rajesh". Using "Rajesh's" suggests that the two entities are talked about differently but it is a joint account which is owned by both Rajesh and Reena. There is an error in the use of the possessive form in the sentence because when possessive nouns are joined by "and" we use an apostrophe with the last one.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "There is no money in the bank in Rajesh and Reena's joint account. "
