Which one of the following sentences is not grammatically correct.?

Question

a. Irregardless of your opinion, we must try harder.

b. He had insight into the problem

c. Between us two, I plan to win.

d. The damage by the tornado was irreparable.

Answer 1

D the damage is irreparable

Answer 2

Irregardless is a word, albeit informal.

I'd say C, only because the meaning is a little ambiguous. Is it an aside - 'Hey, this is just between us, alright?' kind of meaning, or is it: 'Out of us two, I think I will be the one that will win'. It's not obvious, and as a result I would say C.

Answer 3

a - regardless

Answer 4

And in c. I suggest that you drop the word two, & just say "Between us, or strictly between us,"

.

Answer 5

A- there is no such word as Irregardless

even tho people use it all the time.

the word is ..regardless

Irregardless is considered nonstandard because of the two negative elements ir- and -less. It was probably formed on the analogy of such words as irrespective, irrelevant, and irreparable. Those who use it, including on occasion educated speakers, may do so from a desire to add emphasis. Irregardless first appeared in the early 20th century and was perhaps popularized by its use in a comic radio program of the 1930s.
