The given sentence is divided into four segments. Select the option that has the segment with a grammatical error.
A part / of an / apple is / rotten.
of an
To identify the segment with a grammatical error, analyze each part of the sentence:
A part: This segment is grammatically correct as it is a proper noun phrase indicating a portion of something.
of an: This segment is incorrect. The preposition 'of' does not correctly pair with the indefinite article 'an' in this context. It should instead be 'of the', as 'a part of the apple' is the correct idiom in English to refer to a section of something specific.
apple is: This sequence functions correctly in the structure as it predicates the subject correctly.
rotten: This segment is functioning properly as it is correctly indicating the state of being or condition of the subject.
Therefore, the segment with the grammatical error is:
of an
