SSC Selection Post - Graduation Level - 20 Jun 2024 Shift 3 • English • Q23

Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. Select the option that contains an error.
King Solomon of Israel is said to be one of a wisest man who ruled the earth.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. of a wisest man.

The phrase "one of a wisest man" is incorrect because "wisest" is a superlative adjective and should be used with a plural noun without "a."

The correct phrase should be: "one of the wisest men" (plural "men" and article "the").

Other parts of the sentence are correct.
