Identify the part of the sentence that contains an error.
The distinction between the two concepts is subtle enough that escaping even those researchers who are thoroughly familiar with the discipline.
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (D) is subtle enough that escaping
Concept (Enough that Clause के साथ Finite Verb): 'enough that' के बाद पूरा Clause आता है, जिसमें Finite Verb (परिमित क्रिया) होना आवश्यक है। Subject 'The distinction' Singular है, इसलिए Verb Present Simple (सामान्य वर्तमान काल) में 'escapes' होगा।
'escaping' केवल V-ing रूप है, जो Finite Verb का काम नहीं कर सकता, इसलिए वाक्य अधूरा रह जाता है।
✓ शुद्ध वाक्य: The distinction between the two concepts is subtle enough that it escapes even those researchers who are thoroughly familiar with the discipline.
Examiner का trap 'escaping' जैसे V-ing रूप को Finite Verb मान लेना है।
Concept (Enough That Clause with Finite Verb): 'enough that' must be followed by a complete clause, which needs a finite verb. The subject 'The distinction' is singular, so the verb should be 'escapes' in the present simple.
'Escaping' is only a V-ing form, which cannot act as a finite verb, so the sentence is left incomplete.
✓ Correct sentence: The distinction between the two concepts is subtle enough that it escapes even those researchers who are thoroughly familiar with the discipline.
Exam trap: treating a V-ing form such as 'escaping' as a finite verb.
