Key Points

  • The given sentence is erroneous because of the wrong usage of the noun.
  • Note- If the same noun is repeated after a preposition (noun + preposition + noun), the noun always remains singular in such a case.

  • Usage: doors to doors, rows upon rows, hands in hands, words for words ❌

                     door to door, row upon row, hand in hand, word for word ✔️
