Question

Parts of the given sentence have been given as options. One of them may contain a grammatical error. Select the option that has the error. If there is no error, select ‘No error’.
Rohit Sharma’s century was very acclaimed in the media.

A.

No error

B.

in the media.

C.

very acclaimed

D.

Rohit Sharma’s century

Correct option is C

Option (c) contains an error.
The error is in the phrase "very acclaimed."
The word "acclaimed" is an adjective, and it is not typically modified by "very." Instead, it should be modified by "highly," which is the correct adverb used with adjectives like "acclaimed." So, the correct phrase should be "highly acclaimed."
Grammatical rule used: Adjectives that convey a strong meaning (like "acclaimed," "intelligent," "impressive") are modified by "highly" rather than "very." "Highly" is used to emphasize a strong degree of the quality being described.
Example: Incorrect: The movie was very acclaimed by critics. Correct: The movie was highly acclaimed by critics.
