What is the error in this sentence This is the man I gave the parcel to?
Ujjaltalukdar
There is no error as far as modern English is concerned. Generations ago you would have been taught never to end a sentence with a preposition ( eg 'to'). This would necessitate the complex and very formal structure 'This is the man to whom I gave the parcel'. Practically no-one uses this structure any more, and if you did it would make you sound very old-fashioned. Language always changes in this way.
