Question

I have ordered for a cup of coffee...spot the error

Answer 1

The error in the statement are the words 'for a'.

• The sentence will be correctly written as : I have ordered a cup of coffee or I ordered a cup of coffee.
• The usage of unnecessary words or prepositions should be avoided so that a sentence looks more simple and clear.
• In the sentence above, the conjunction 'for' and the article 'a' are not required and should be avoided.
