Q: The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. Had you/not reached in time,/we will have/lost our lives.
  • A. Had you
  • B. lost our lives
  • C. not reached in time
  • D. we will have
Correct Answer: Option D - उपरोक्त वाक्य में we will have के स्थान पर we would have का प्रयोग होगा क्योंकि वाक्य conditional sentence है तथा conditional sentence में प्रथम clause में Had + V³ होने पर द्वितीय Clause में would have + V³ का प्रयोग होता है। Note- Had + Subject + V³ + Other word + Subject + Would/Could/Might + have + V³ + Other word. Correct Sentence - Had you not reached in time we would have lost our lives.
