Identify the part of the sentence that contains an error. "No sooner had she left the room when the lights went out."
the room when
The sentence uses the 'No sooner ... than' structure, and we must find the part that breaks this fixed pattern.
'No sooner' is a negative adverbial that, when placed at the start, forces inversion of subject and auxiliary, which is why we get 'No sooner had she left'.
The rule is that 'No sooner' must always be followed by the correlative conjunction 'than', not 'when'.
In the given sentence the segment 'the room when' wrongly uses 'when' where the grammar demands 'than', so this is the part containing the error.
The correct sentence should read: 'No sooner had she left the room than the lights went out.'
The parts 'No sooner', 'had she left' and 'the lights went out' are all correctly formed and contribute to a proper inverted construction.
Since the mistake lies in the connector inside 'the room when', that segment is the answer.
Hence, the correct answer is the room when.
