Q7 / 270 · NDA 2023 (Phase 1) · General Ability

Each item in this section has a sentence with three underline parts labelled. Read the sentence to find out whether there is any error in any underline part

  • A
    She didn’t
  • Correct answer
    B
    tell anybody
  • C
    about her plans
  • D
    No Error

Solution

'Anybody' is not completely incorrect. However, 'anyone' is more appropriate. We use 'anyone' when we do not have any specific person in mind to refer whereas 'anybody' is used when we intend to target a group or a member of a particular group.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
