    Question

    Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence.
    He dreams big than his friends.

    A.

    bigger

    B.

    more big

    C.

    biggest

    D.

    most big

    Correct option is A

    The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (a) bigger.
    Explanation: The sentence requires a comparative degree because a comparison is made between “he” and “his friends”.
    Grammatical Rule Used:
    Comparative adjectives (e.g., taller, smarter, bigger) are used when comparing two nouns and are followed by “than” (not “then”).
    Example: She is taller than her brother.
    Information Booster:
    "Then" refers to time; "than" is used for comparisons.
    Incorrect options:
    · (b) more big – incorrect form (use “bigger” instead)
    · (c) biggest – superlative form, used when comparing more than two
    · (d) most big – incorrect form
