Question

Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted word in the given sentence.
"Mita is smart than many other kids in the school."

A.

smarter

B.

less smart

C.

most smart

D.

smartest

Correct option is A

The correct replacement is (a) "smarter."
Explanation:
· Comparative adjectives (e.g., smarter, taller) are used when comparing two things.
· "Than" indicates comparison, so "smarter" is the correct form.
Other Options:
· (b) "Less smart" – Incorrect, as it changes the meaning.
· (c) "Most smart" – Incorrect, as "most" is for the superlative (when comparing three or more).
· (d) "Smartest" – Incorrect, as "smartest" is the superlative form.
Corrected Sentence:
· "Mita is smarter than many other kids in the school."
Example Sentence:
· "John is smarter than his classmates in math."
