  • Question
  • Read each sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical error in it. The error, if any will be in one part of the sentence. The letter of that part is the answer. If there is no error, the answer is 'D'. (Ignore the errors of punctuation, if any). (solve as per the direction given)


  • Options
  • A. He is generally
  • B. more hungry
  • C. than she is .
  • D. No error.

  • Correct Answer
  • more hungry 

    Explanation

    The sentence reads: "He is generally more hungry than she is." Let's break it down to identify any grammatical error:

    1. Option A - He is generally:
      • This part is grammatically correct. "He is generally" is properly structured, and there is no issue with it.
    2. Option B - more hungry:
      • This part contains a small error. The adjective "hungry" is a simple adjective, and when using comparative forms, "hungrier" is the correct comparative form of "hungry." The correct phrase should be "more hungry" replaced by "hungrier." Hence, "more hungry" is incorrect.
    3. Option C - than she is:
      • This part is grammatically correct. It is a comparative clause and is correctly structured.
    4. Option D - No error:
      • There is an error in Option B with the usage of "more hungry." Therefore, Option D is not correct.
    5. Final Answer:
      • The error is in Option B. The correct answer is B.
