SSC GD Const (English) - 29 Feb 2024 - Shift 2 • English • Q13

Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose 'No error'.

My nephew is the most naughtiest kid on this Earth.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. My nephew is the most.

  • The error in the sentence is related to the superfluous use of the superlative adjective.
  • The superlative degree of naughty is "naughtiest".
  • There is no need of using "most" before it.
  • So we must not use "most" before "naughtiest" to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct.
  • The correct sentence will be: My nephew is the naughtiest kid on this Earth.
