Parts of the following sentence are given as options. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
The data which she presented was the most latest one on the matter under discussion
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. was the most latest one.
The phrase "the most latest" is incorrect because "latest" is already a superlative adjective, meaning "most recent." Superlative adjectives should not be paired with "most" because they already indicate the highest degree of quality.
The correct form is "the latest" instead of "the most latest."
Therefore the correct option is "was the most latest one".
By correcting the error, the sentence is now properly structured and grammatically accurate. The corrected sentence will be "The data which she presented was the latest one on the matter under discussion."
