Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence may have some 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".
One (1) / should keep (2) / his word. (3) / No error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
When a sentence uses the indefinite pronoun one , it should continue using the same pronoun or its supplementary forms i.e., one's in this case , as it is not correct to use other pronouns such as he or she. Thus, his should be replaced with one's .
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "One should keep one's word."
