Answer:
(2)
The correct sentence will be:
None of the diplomats at the conference were either able to comprehend or solve the problem
Explanation:
- There are two errors in option (2).
- The plural form of 'was' which is 'were' will be used.
- Second the use of 'either' has not been done in correct place.
- When 'either' is used with 'or' it plays the role of conjunction.
- A conjunction is the part of speech which helps in joining words, phrases and sentences.
- As a conjunction 'either' is paired with 'or'.
- The use of 'either' represent the choice made among two alternatives.
- In the given sentence, the use of 'either, or' represent the choice between comprehending and solving the issue.
- Also, 'either' is used before the verb if the actions are different.
