English grammar – Spot the error (choose the part with an error or “No error”). Sentence: I see you / in Kanpur / during my next visit / in the month of May.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: I see you

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
This question checks future-time reference and appropriate tense selection in a plan or promise. Identify the incorrect fragment.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • The speaker intends a future action (next visit, in May).
  • Standard English requires a future form or a present-progressive plan, not simple present.


Concept / Approach:
For future arrangements, use “I will/shall see you …” or “I am going to see you …” or “I am seeing you …” (scheduled). The simple present “I see you” does not convey intended futurity here, hence it is the error.



Step-by-Step Solution:

A: “I see you” — should be “I will see you” or “I shall see you.”B: “in Kanpur” — correct place complement.C: “during my next visit” — correct time-frame phrase.D: “in the month of May.” — acceptable formal time phrase.


Verification / Alternative check:

Corrected sentence: “I will see you in Kanpur during my next visit in the month of May.”


Why Other Options Are Wrong:

B–D are fine; only A fails to express the intended future time.


Common Pitfalls:

Overusing simple present for promises or appointments.


Final Answer:
I see you
