Which sentence below contains a spelling error?

English

Llana [10]3 years ago

The sentence 'I recieved her letter of resignation' contains a spelling error.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The correct spellings of 'recieved' are 'received'.

The word 'receive' means getting something from someone or something. For example: Allison received a medal for winning the drawing contest. In this sentence, Allison was given a medal by her school.

The word follows a very old and common English vocabulary rule called: I before E except after C. According to this rule, in certain words, alphabet 'i' shall be placed before alphabet 'e' as long as they are preceding the alphabet 'c'. For example: In F-R-I-E-N-D, I is placed before E as they are not [preceding the alphabet C; which in this word does not exist entirely.

But, if the letters 'i' and 'e' are to be placed right after alphabet 'c', then the 'e' shall precede 'i'. For example: In words such as 'R-E-C-E-I-V-E' and 'P-E-R-C-E-I-V-E', E precedes I as they both are placed right after 'c'.

To avoid this common mistake, it is advised to refer to a spell check.
