The antecedent in the sentence above does not match the underlined pronoun in the latter part of the sentence. instead of we, the speaker uses us. Hence, the correct version will be The doughnuts we bought were the best we had ever tasted!
What is an antecedent in a sentence structure?
In English, an antecedent is the noun or noun phrase that a pronoun refers to. It is also called a referent. Broadly, an antecedent may be any word in a sentence that another word or phrase refers to.
Therefore, us in the sentence refers to Sabrina and I. Hence, its pronoun will be a plural pronoun and since us is coming before the verb had ever tasted implies that it should assume a subjective case and not objective case. So the correct answer is The doughnuts we bought were the best we had ever tasted!
The complete version of the question is:
Sabrina and I were excited for the opening of the new bakery. The doughnuts we bought were the best us had ever tasted! The antecedent in this sentence does not match the underlined pronoun in it.
