SPOT THE ERRORSusie got her son take the medicine even though it tasted terrible.
Correct answer: B. take
- A. got
- B. take
- C. even though
- D. tasted
Explanation
Replace "take" with "to take".The sentence is incorrect because it lacks the auxiliary verb "to" after the verb "got." Adding "to" before "take" makes the sentence grammatically correct.
