    Question

    Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence.
    My uncle has an extremely large bungalow which has six bedrooms, five bathrooms and four living rooms.

    A.

    enormous

    B.

    meagre

    C.

    great

    D.

    oversize

    Correct option is A

    The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (a) enormous.
    Explanation:
    The sentence describes a very large bungalow, which implies size and space. “Enormous” means very large in size or amount, making it the most suitable word to substitute “extremely large.”
    Correct sentence: My uncle has an enormous bungalow which has six bedrooms, five bathrooms and four living rooms.
    Grammatical rule used:
    Adjective replacement based on contextual meaning is allowed when the grammatical role of the word (modifying a noun) remains the same. “Enormous” is an adjective just like “extremely large.”
    Example:
    · They live in an enormous mansion in the hills.
    Information Booster:
    Words like “enormous,” “gigantic,” and “massive” are often used to describe large quantities or sizes in formal usage.
    Meanings of the other options:
    · Meagre – Small or insufficient in amount. (अल्प / कम मात्रा में)
    · Great – Can mean big, but usually refers to quality or impact rather than size. (महान / उत्तम)
    · Oversize – Bigger than usual but often used for clothes or objects, not for buildings. (बहुत बड़ा / अधिक आकार का)
