Master English Grammar: 200 Error Spotting Rules with Explanations
✅ 9. Preposition Error in Phrasal Verbs
• ❌ She insisted to go with us.
• ✅ She insisted on going with us.
• Why? The correct phrase is insist on + gerund (verb+ing). Some verbs require specific prepositions and forms.

✅ 10. Error with Collective Nouns
• ❌ The jury were divided in their opinions.
• ✅ The jury was divided in its opinion. (OR: The members of the jury were divided in their opinions.)
• Why? In formal English, collective nouns like jury, team, class are singular unless you explicitly refer to individual members.
✅ 11. Incorrect Comparison with “Than”
• ❌ She is more taller than her sister.
• ✅ She is taller than her sister.
• Why? Don’t use “more” with adjectives that are already in comparative form (taller). It’s redundant and grammatically incorrect.

✅ 12. Pronoun-Antecedent Disagreement
• ❌ Each of the boys must submit their form.
• ✅ Each of the boys must submit his form.
• Why? Each is singular, so the pronoun should also be singular (his or his or her).
