Question

Word: For — Choose the option where its usage is incorrect or inappropriate.

• A. He has a great eye for detail.
• B. We are waiting for the day.
• C. I can’t bear for her to be angry.
• D. It couldn’t be done for ever.

Hint:

Distinguish between “for ever” (archaic/literary) and “forever” (modern standard usage).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

“For ever” in option (4) is incorrect in this context; the correct form is “forever” (meaning for all time) or “for long” depending on intent. “For ever” can be used in some poetic/literary contexts but is inappropriate in this sentence. The other options use “for” correctly to indicate purpose, reference, or in infinitive structures. \[ \boxed{(4)} \]
