Question

Spot the error 'He came late to school'

Answer 1

he is singular

so,

the right sentence is he comes late to school

Answer 2

Answer:

He comes late to school.

Explanation:

As far as the structure of the sentence is concerned there is no error but ‘He came late to school ‘refers to a finished action in the past. There is no use of ‘time words’ like ‘yesterday / two days back etc. ‘to specify ‘when he came late?’ It could have made things clear.

If we have to convey that he is habitual of coming late then it is always appropriate to use the ‘simple present tense’.

So, it should be ‘He comes late to school’.
