Choose the sentence that is grammatically incorrect.

  • A.I shall inform them this.
  • B.He boarded the train.
  • C.A bunch of keys has been lost.
  • D.Ask him why he wastes his time.

Answer: A

Correct answer: I shall inform them this.

Inform takes a person as its object and the matter after of or about: I shall inform them of this. It cannot take two objects as tell can.

The other three are sound:

  • He boarded the train - board is transitive and needs no preposition.
  • A bunch of keys has been lost - the subject is bunch, so the verb is singular.
  • Ask him why he wastes his time - correct indirect question order.
