English can get quite tricky. There are so many tenses to know, so many prepositions to memorize. One misstep and the whole sentence suddenly falls apart. Whether you know all of the rules by heart or just ‘feel’ your way around grammar, it’s worth sharpening your skills every once in a while.

In this quiz, you’ll read through 30 sentences, each with a sneaky mistake. In some, you’ll just have to spot the word that’s used incorrectly, while others you’ll have to rewrite entirely.

    Number 6 is plain wrong. Hardly working means barely working. Yet the replacement word they want us to use - hard - changes the sentence completely because hardly working is the opposite of working hard and so can't be used for a replacement if you want the sentence to retain its meaning.

    the sentence puts the "hard" at the end, working hardly wouldnt mean the same hardly working. that one is much so a "do you know the difference between these two words" the same way people mess up lose and loose.
