Identify the part of the sentence that contains a grammatical error. A. The companys latest report, B. which was released only this morning, C. provided the data that D. supports our initial hypothesis.
The companys latest report
To show that something belongs to a singular noun, we add an apostrophe and s ('s) to it. Here the report belongs to the company, so the noun must be in the possessive form.
The first part writes the plain plural-looking form companys, which is not a valid English word. The correct possessive is company's, giving: The company's latest report.
The remaining parts are error-free: 'which was released only this morning' is a correct relative clause, 'provided the data that' uses the right past tense, and 'supports our initial hypothesis' agrees with the singular noun 'data' as commonly used.
Hence, The companys latest report.
