Question

Select the most appropriate option to improve the highlighted segment in the given sentence. If there is no improvement required, select ‘No improvement’.
The shopping mall is more farther from my house than from my office.

A.

farther

B.

more far

C.

far

D.

No improvement

Correct option is A

The correct substitution of the highlighted segment is (a) farther.
· The word "farther" is the correct comparative form of "far" when referring to physical distance. The phrase "more farther" is incorrect because "farther" already implies a comparison, so the word "more" is redundant.
· Grammatical rule used: When comparing distances, "farther" is used as the comparative form of "far." It should not be preceded by "more."
· Example: "The park is farther from my house than from the school." Here, "farther" correctly indicates the comparative distance.
