reference
case
agreement
The pronouns in the sentence are the following:
anyone
his
he
Who is 'he'?
The type of pronoun error in the given sentence is agreement.
To identify pronoun errors related to agreement, you need to assess whether the pronoun being used matches the noun it is replacing in terms of number and gender. In this sentence, the pronoun "his" is referring to the noun "anyone." However, "anyone" is a singular pronoun, while "his" is a pronoun in the masculine singular form.
To correct this agreement error, you could replace "his" with the gender-neutral pronoun "their," so the sentence becomes:
"If anyone accepts their challenge, they will be sorry."
