Choose the option that demonstrates an error.
The committee's deliberations yielded a multifaceted and cautious optimistic, yet subtly hesitant proposal that sparked both admiration and skepticism among analysts.
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (B) cautious optimistic
Concept (Adjective से पहले Adverb: Optimistic): 'optimistic' एक Adjective है और उसे modify करने के लिए Adverb चाहिए। 'cautious' भी Adjective है, इसलिए 'cautious optimistic' गलत है; सही रूप 'cautiously optimistic' होगा।
✓ शुद्ध वाक्य: The committee's deliberations yielded a multifaceted and cautiously optimistic, yet subtly hesitant proposal that sparked both admiration and skepticism among analysts.
Examiner का trap 'cautious optimistic' लिखना है।
Concept (Adverb before Adjective 'Optimistic'): 'optimistic' is an adjective, and it must be modified by an adverb. 'Cautious' is an adjective, so 'cautious optimistic' is wrong. The correct form is 'cautiously optimistic'.
✓ Correct sentence: The committee's deliberations yielded a multifaceted and cautiously optimistic, yet subtly hesitant proposal that sparked both admiration and skepticism among analysts.
Exam trap: writing 'cautious optimistic'.
