Select the sentence in which the adjective is misused, leading to a subtle error in meaning or structure.
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (B) The architect presented a notably intricacy blueprint for the renovation project.
'intricacy' एक Noun है, जबकि 'blueprint' का वर्णन करने के लिए Adjective 'intricate' (जटिल, बारीक) चाहिए। 'notably' Adverb भी तभी सही होता है जब उसके बाद Adjective हो।
✓ शुद्ध वाक्य: The architect presented a notably intricate blueprint for the renovation project.
Examiner का trap: 'notably' के बाद Noun 'intricacy' रखकर उसे सही मान लेना trap है; वर्णन के लिए Adjective 'intricate' चाहिए।
'intricacy' is a noun, but the blueprint must be described by an adjective, 'intricate' (complicated, finely detailed). The adverb 'notably' is correct only when an adjective follows it.
✓ Correct sentence: The architect presented a notably intricate blueprint for the renovation project.
Exam trap: placing the noun 'intricacy' after 'notably' and accepting it as correct is the trap; the adjective 'intricate' is needed to describe the blueprint.
