Question

spot the error and rewrite the correct sentence :Many types of games was played at the picnic ​

Answer 1

he is not be many types of games

Answer 2

The error in this sentence is "was".

The correct sentence is: Many types of games were played at the picnic.

• After a noun is written in plural form, the auxillary verb "was" is incorrectly employed.
• Although the statement is written in the past tense, the auxillary is incorrect.
• This is due to the fact that the noun "games" is a plural noun, implying that there were numerous games played at the picnic.
• The plural auxillary verb of the past tense is valid when used with a plural noun.
• Therefore, in the sentence, "was" should be replaced with "were."
