Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is '1' i.e. Conjunction .
Key Points
- The phrase "as well as" is used in the sentence to connect the subject "She" with "her sister".
- "As well as" acts as a conjunction to add additional information to the main subject.
- Even though it connects two subjects, the verb "is" agrees with the first subject, "She," as the second subject is part of a parenthetical phrase.
Correct sentence: She as well as her sister is engaged.
