The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains
a grammatical error.
Their dog is / more better / trained than / our dog.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. more better.
- The second part of the given sentence is erroneous in nature.
- Better in itself is a comparative word, adding the adjective 'more' to the same sentence makes it superfluous in nature.
- Thus, if better is used, the adjective more should be removed from the given sentence.
The correct sentence is:
Their dog is better trained than our dog.
