English » Spotting Errors
The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
The manager said, “Could you please / confirm me whether you / have received all the items / that you had ordered?”
The manager said, “Could you please
have received all the items
confirm me whether you
that you had ordered
the error lies in 'confirm me whether you'
it should be replaced with confirm whether you
the use of pronoun me is superfluous here and should be removed
so the correct answer is, the manager said," could you please confirm whether you have received all the items that you had ordered?"
