Spot the error in the following sentence and identify the INCORRECT part.

She always avoids to speak during the meetings because she is shy.

Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation

Answer: (B) to speak

Concept (Gerund after Avoid) Avoid के बाद gerund (verb + -ing) आता है, infinitive (to + verb) नहीं। Enjoy, mind, finish और suggest भी gerund लेते हैं। अतः भाग (2) में त्रुटि है।
✓ सही वाक्य: She always avoids speaking during the meetings because she is shy.
Concept (Gerund after Avoid) Avoid is followed by a gerund (verb + -ing), not an infinitive (to + verb). Enjoy, mind, finish and suggest also take a gerund.
✓ Correct sentence She always avoids speaking during the meetings because she is shy.
