Find out whether there is an error in any underlined part.
I sided (A) with (B) him (C) No error (D)
Answer: D
The sentence is correct, so the answer is No error.
The verb side in the sense of supporting someone in a dispute takes the preposition 'with': I sided with him. The object pronoun 'him' is correct after a preposition.
'I sided' is a correct past tense, so no part contains an error. A common slip would be 'sided to him' or 'sided he', neither of which appears.
'Side against' someone is the opposite construction, used when one opposes him; 'side with' always marks support.
