The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. I losed my folder / which had all my documents / while travelling / to my hometown.
Answer: A
The error is in 'I losed my folder'.
'Lose' is an irregular verb whose past tense is 'lost', not 'losed'. The sentence should read 'I lost my folder'.
The other three segments, 'which had all my documents', 'while travelling' and 'to my hometown', are grammatically correct.
The past tense of 'lose' is 'lost', as in 'I lost my pen'. Verbs such as 'lose', 'choose' and 'freeze' do not take -ed, and 'losed' is therefore a common error. The other parts of the sentence need no change.
