Question
Each of the following sentences has been divided into
five parts (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e). One of these parts may contain a grammatical or idiomatic error. Identify the part that contains the error. If there is no error, choose option (E). The company celebrated its five hundredth (a) / employee joining the organisation (b) / by organising a special ceremony (c) / at the headquarters (d). / No error (e)Solution
Explanation: When referring to order/position, an ordinal number is required. Here, the sentence intends to say the 500th employee. “Five hundredth” is correct only if written as “five-hundredth”, otherwise clarity is lost. Correct form: the five-hundredth employee or the 500th employee. Error lies in part (a).
