Question : The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don't find any error, mark 'No error' as your answer.
Neem tastes / a little bitterly, / but is very useful.
Option 1: a little bitterly
Option 2: Neem tastes
Option 3: but is very useful
Option 4: No error
Correct Answer: a little bitterly
Solution : The first option is correct.
The corrected sentence should be: "Neem tastes a little bitter, but is very useful."
The error is in the use of the adverb bitterly after a little. The correct adjective form to describe the taste of neem is bitter, so the adverb bitterly is unnecessary in this context. The phrase should be a little bitter to convey the intended meaning.
