SSC CHSL 2025 PYQ — Question 21

SSC CHSL - 13 Nov 2025 - Shift 1 • English • Q21

Choose the most suitable option to replace the highlighted part of the sentence:
This is the
most toughest exam that I have ever taken.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The original sentence uses a double superlative ('most toughest'), which is grammatically incorrect in English. The adjective 'tough' is a one-syllable word, so its superlative form is created by adding the suffix '-est' (toughest), not by using the word 'most'.
