Correct Answer: though I do not absolute agree with her a bit on this.


Solution : The error lies in the second option.

Explanation:

The error is in the phrase do not absolute agree. The correct adverb to use here is absolutelyAbsolutely in this context emphasises the extent of the disagreement, modifying the verb agree to express a stronger degree of disagreement.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: My granny says that it is quite all right to get married young, though I do not absolutely agree with her a bit on this.
