When a pronoun does not agree in number or person with an antecedent that appears earlier in the sentence, what
kind of error occurs?
O a pronoun case error
O a pronoun shift error
O a reciprocal pronoun error
O a vague pronoun error

Respuesta :

In a situation when a pronoun fails to agree with its antecedent in number that has been placed earlier in the sentence:

B). A pronoun shift error.

  • The 'pronoun shift error' is described as the error in which there is a discrepancy between the pronoun and the antecedent employed in the sentence.
  • This happens because the author initially employs a different antecedent and then moves on to the other type of pronoun which causes this disagreement.
  • In a sentence, if the antecedent is placed earlier than the pronoun it refers to and fails to agree with it in number, it would be called as 'pronoun-antecedent agreement.'

Thus, option B is the correct answer.
