    Question

    The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer.

    If she would have known / about the meeting / she would

    have attended it / without hesitation.
    A If she would have known Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B about the meeting Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C she would have attended it Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The correct phrasing is "If she had known" instead of "If she would have known." This is because the conditional perfect ("would have known") is incorrect in this context; the correct form is the past perfect ("had known"). The other segments are correctly constructed.
