Error Spotting Tips and Tricks for Government Exams

Theory

Words, phrases and sentences can be called the roots of any language. An error in their usage leaves an incomprehensible expression. It would be difficult to understand such sentences and it may also alter the meaning of the sentence. Hence, we must know the roots of the language so that we can understand the written text and its expression perfectly. An Error Spotting Test is to judge a candidate’s complete knowledge of parts of speech, and grammar.
