Question
The fall was driven off concerns over the latest US
inflation data, which revealed stronger-than-expected consumer spending in October. Read the sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical or idiomatic error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The letter of that part is the answer. If there is ‘No error’, the answer is (5). (Ignore errors of punctuation, if any).Solution
The phrase "driven off concerns" is incorrect. The correct phrase should be "driven by concerns" , as it conveys that the fall was caused or motivated by concerns over the inflation data.
