A sentence has been divided into four parts. Identify the part that contains a grammatical error.
The revised guidelines /are far more clearer /than the original /instructions issued last year.

Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation

Answer: (A) are far more clearer

Concept (Double Comparative: More Clearer): 'more clearer' में Double Comparative की त्रुटि है। 'clear' में '-er' जोड़कर बना 'clearer' स्वयं Comparative Degree है, इसलिए उसके पहले 'more' नहीं आ सकता। 'far' केवल तुलना की मात्रा बढ़ाने वाला Modifier है, जो यहाँ उचित है।
✓ शुद्ध वाक्य: The revised guidelines are far clearer than the original instructions issued last year.
Examiner का trap यह है कि 'far' के साथ प्रयुक्त 'more' को उचित मान लिया जाए, जबकि त्रुटि 'more' में है।
Concept (Double Comparative: More Clearer): 'more clearer' is a double comparative error. 'Clear' with '-er' becomes 'clearer', which is already a comparative degree, so 'more' cannot be placed before it. 'Far' is only a modifier of the amount of comparison, and it is correct.
✓ Correct sentence: The revised guidelines are far clearer than the original instructions issued last year.
Exam trap: accepting 'far more clearer' as correct, because 'far' is an acceptable intensifier and the error lies in 'more'.
