Identify the error in the following sentence: 'Ourselves should not boast of one’s knowledge.'

Question

Accepted Answer

The error in the sentence is in the use of the pronoun 'Ourselves'. 'Ourselves' is a reflexive pronoun and cannot be used as the subject of a sentence. The correct subject pronoun here should be 'We'. The rest of the sentence is correct: 'should not boast of one’s knowledge' is grammatically correct. Therefore, the error lies in the first word 'Ourselves'.
