Error Spotting
The correct answer is 'Most of voters' i.e. error lies in this part of the sentence. Key Points In the given sentence, the usage of 'Most of voters' is incorrect instead use 'Most voters' According to grammar, 'Most' is a determiner which is used for the nouns to determine them as it is determiner hence it has no effect on the verb. If we read further the verb of the sentence is 'seem' which is a plural verb. So the subject of the sentence should be a plural noun which is going to be 'Voters' So the correct sentence is-Most voters in Taiwan seem to have once again voted for the democratic party and President Tsai Ing-wen. Confusion Points 'Most of' is also a quantifier and the structure is Most of + definite article + noun. In this case, the verb should be according to the noun. Let's see an example- Most of the houses in the capital don't have piped water. So the given sentence can also be corrected in the other way also-Most of the voters in Taiwan seem to have once again voted for the democratic party and President Tsai Ing-wen.
