Ramesh is senior _______ me in service.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Latin Adjectives: Certain adjectives ending in -ior (such as senior, junior, superior, inferior, prior, anterior, and posterior) are derived from Latin and are used for comparison.
Preposition Usage: Unlike Standard English comparatives that use "than" (e.g., "older than"), these specific Latin-origin adjectives always take the preposition to.
The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is to.
The complete sentence is: "Ramesh is senior to me in service."
