Question

Which sentence has a pronoun-antecedent agreement error?

Answer 1

Answer:

Pronoun-antecedent errors happen when a pronoun does not agree with its antecedent, which can create confusion in your writing. Pronouns are generic noun replacements such as him, her, it, and them. An antecedent is the noun that the pronoun replaces

Answer 2

Answer:

Pronoun-Antecedent errors in sentences occur when a pronoun does not match its antecedent. This can cause confusion in the text.

Explanation:

• A common mistake a writer makes is a discrepancy between a pronoun and antecedent. meaning a pronoun does not match  the noun (antecedent) it refers to. Singular antecedents and singular pronouns that align with each other while plural pronouns matches the plural antecedent.
• It is important to match pronouns to their antecedents to avoid the pronoun - antecedent error in gender and in number.
• For Example:

Lara turned his homework to the teacher.

• In this case 'Lara' is the antecedent while 'His' is the pronoun. Now since Lara is a female and 'his' is a male pronoun it is causing pronoun-Antecedent error.
• To correct the sentence we have to replace 'his' with 'her'.
• So, Lara turned her homework to the teacher
