    Question

    Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted words in the given sentence.
    This is the completest book on English Grammar.

    A.

    a complete

    B.

    the complete

    C.

    complete

    D.

    no improvement

    Correct option is C

    The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (c) complete.
    Explanation: "Complete" is an absolute adjective and should not be used in the superlative form like "completest." Adjectives that are already absolute do not take "-er" or "-est" forms.
    Grammatical rule used:
    �� Absolute adjectives like complete, perfect, unique are not graded or compared.
    Example: This is a complete guide to the subject.
    �� Information Booster: Avoid “more perfect”, “most unique”, “completest” etc.
