Which part of the following sentence contains a spelling error?
The CEO assured (1) that the organisation (2) would act with intigrity (3) and in the interest of stakeholders (4).Answer & explanation
Answer: D) (3)
Rule: read each numbered part for a word whose letters do not match its root.
*Integrity* comes from Latin *integer*, whole — so the second vowel is e, exactly as in *integer* and *integral*.
The error.
Part (3) prints intigrity; the correct form is integrity *(ईमानदारी, सत्यनिष्ठा)*.
"To act with integrity" = to act honestly and by one's principles.
Why the others are fine.
• Part (1) assured *(आश्वस्त किया)* — double s, single r; correctly spelt.
• Part (2) organisation *(संगठन)* — the British -isation form; fully acceptable.
• Part (4) stakeholders *(हितधारक)* — one word, correctly spelt.
