• The error lies in the part "Laisha should holding."
• The verb 'should' does not require the -ing form of the verb that follows it.
• Structure: Subject + should + V1 + Object
  • Example: We should go home.
• "Holding" should be replaced with the base form of the verb 'hold.'
• The correct answer is Option 1.

Correct sentence: Laisha should hold a meeting in the Prem Auditorium tomorrow evening.

The erroneous part is '​that day and catched'.

Key Points

• The error lies in the use of the incorrect past tense form of the verb "catch." The correct past tense form of "catch" is "caught," not "catched."
• Here's a more detailed explanation:
• The verb "catch" is irregular, which means it doesn't follow the standard rule for forming past tense verbs by adding "-ed" to the base form. Instead, its past tense form is "caught." For instance:
  • Present tense: I catch a fish every morning.
  • Past tense: Yesterday, I caught three fish at the lake 
• In the given sentence sentence, "catched" is incorrectly used as the past tense of "catch." The correct form is "caught." So the corrected sentence should be: "I was very lucky that day and caught a lot of fish."
• Using the correct past tense form is crucial for maintaining grammatical accuracy in sentences.

​Correct Sentence: I was very lucky that day and caught a lot of fish.
