Directions: The following sentence has been broken in three parts (A), (B) and (C). If there is any grammatical error in any of these parts, that is the answer. If there is no error, the answer is (D).

Neither Anita nor Shreya (A)/ were at the home when (B)/ the postman came. (C)/ No error (D).

This is the correct option as this part of the sentence has error. As a grammatical rule, if the names are separated by ‘nor’, a singular form of verb (was) is to be used, and not a plural form (were). The sentence tells that Anita was not at home and Shreya was not at home either. Since neither one of the two was at home, we use a singular verb.
