    Question

    Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted words in the given sentence.
    Varun is handsome than his brother.

    A.

    much handsome to

    B.

    most handsome than

    C.

    more handsome than

    D.

    more handsome to

    Correct option is C

    The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (c) more handsome than.
    Explanation:
    "Handsome" is a positive adjective and to compare two people, we use the comparative form using “more.”
    Hence, "more handsome than" is grammatically correct.
    Grammatical Rule Used:
    · For adjectives with two or more syllables (except a few exceptions like "clever"), use “more + adjective” to form the comparative.
    · Example: She is more intelligent than her sister.
    �� Information Booster: Never use “most” when only two subjects are being compared.
