English Error Spotting — Identify the incorrect part (spelling/usage; choose the segment containing the error). Sentence parts: A) He was invited B) to attend the C) inaugural of the all party D) meat E) All correct

Introduction / Context:This item checks for a spelling error that creates a different, irrelevant word. “Meat” (edible flesh) is a real word but does not fit the context of public events. The sentence intends the noun “meet,” a gathering/meeting, commonly used in phrases like “sports meet” or “all-party meet.”

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Context: invitation to a formal public event.
• Segment D reads “meat,” which clashes semantically.
• Standard collocation: all-party meet/inaugural meet.

Concept / Approach:Differentiate homophones: “meet” (noun/verb) vs. “meat” (noun, food). Only “meet” fits institutional contexts (“athletics meet,” “press meet,” “all-party meet”). Therefore, segment D contains the error.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:Paraphrase: “He was invited to attend the inaugural of the all-party meet.” Though some editors prefer “inauguration of the all-party meet,” the key tested error is the homophone in D.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

• A–C: Grammatically acceptable in exam style; the primary intended error lies in D.

Common Pitfalls:Overlooking real-word homophones because spellcheck does not flag them. Always check semantic fit, not just dictionary validity.

Final Answer:meat
