In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select 'No Error'. Needlessly to say, (1)/ we need more (2)/ environmentalists on this planet. (3)/ No error (4)

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The error lies in part (1) of the sentence. The adverb 'Needlessly' is incorrectly used here. The correct idiomatic phrase is "Needless to say", which means 'it is self-evident' or 'obviously'. Therefore, 'Needlessly' must be replaced with the adjective 'Needless' to make the sentence grammatically correct.

Try it yourself before checking the explanation above.
