Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

a leg.

Solution :

The correct answer is Option 4: a leg.

Explanation:

In English grammar, when referring to a specific part of a person's body (especially in passive structures involving injury or pain), the definite article 'the' is used instead of the indefinite article 'a'.

Therefore, the segment "a leg." contains the grammatical error.

Correct Sentence:
"The class teacher was wounded in the leg."
