Question

Select the option that rectifies the underlined spelling error. The students had to write an essay for their asignment.

• A. assignmant
• B. assignment
• C. essignment
• D. asignmant

Answer 1

Answer:

B. assignment

• The Error: The underlined word in the sentence is "asignment". It is missing a second 's'. Correct Spelling: The correct spelling is assignment. Breakdown: It is derived from the verb assign + the suffix -ment. Since "assign" is spelled with a double 's', the noun form must also retain both.
