A similar type of construction can be found in every Romance language, each with a consistent order of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb.


A. each with a consistent order of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
B. each with consistent orders of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
C. each having a consistent order of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
D. all having a consistent order of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb
E. all with consistent orders of impersonal pronoun, indefinite pronoun, and verb

Answer: A
Why not C?

Hey,

I've seen that question on a GMAT prep test.

I am confused as well on why it's A not C.

to be honest i couldn't figure out a grammatical rule for this question, first of all i eliminated answer choices with ''orders'' for it make more sense to have order in singular.

then i eliminated answers with ''all'' because we are comparing a construction type to another so it made more sense to use ''each''.

Thank you.

regards,

Joe

we need to see a screen shot of the problem, directly from the FREE gmat prep software, before we can allow any further discussion of it.

thank you.
