Question

Each of them were given a gift. Find error and correct it

Answer 1

Explanation:

every one of them were given a gift

Answer 2

Each of them was given a gift.

Explanation:

• ‘Each’ is a quantifier that specifies a single number. Hence when ‘each’ is used in the phrase ‘each of them’ it signifies a singular entity. As a result it changes the subject of the sentence from plural to singular.

• As per the subject-verb agreement a singular subject is followed by a singular verb.

• Hence in the given context, ‘Each of them were given a gift’ the error lies in the plural verb ‘were’. It should be in the singular as ‘was’.
