SSC CHSL - 26 Nov 2025 - Shift 1 • English • Q2

Identify the part of the sentence that contains a grammatical error.
A. The new smartphone is B. much more sleeker C. and lighter than D. the previous model.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The error is in part B because it uses a double comparative form ("more sleeker"). The adjective "sleek" is a one-syllable word, so its comparative form is made by adding the suffix "-er" (sleeker). It should be "much sleeker".
