Which sentence contains an error regarding the degree of comparison of an adjective?
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (B) Today's younger audiences are adapting more quicker to new digital platforms than previous generations ever did.
Concept (Double Comparative: More Quicker): 'quicker' स्वयं Comparative Degree है, इसलिए उसके पहले 'more' लगाने से Double Comparative बनता है, जो गलत है। 'more quicker' के स्थान पर 'more quickly' (Adverb के रूप में, क्योंकि यह 'adapting' Verb को modify कर रहा है) या केवल 'quicker' आएगा।
✓ शुद्ध वाक्य: Today's younger audiences are adapting more quickly to new digital platforms than previous generations ever did.
Exam trap: 'quicker' के साथ 'more' लगाने का वह जाल है, जबकि यहाँ Adverb (क्रियाविशेषण) 'more quickly' आ सकता है।
Concept (Double Comparative: More Quicker): 'quicker' is already a comparative degree, so placing 'more' before it creates a double comparative, which is wrong. 'more quicker' can become 'more quickly' (an adverb, since it modifies the verb 'adapting') or simply 'quicker'.
✓ Correct sentence: Today's younger audiences are adapting more quickly to new digital platforms than previous generations ever did.
Exam trap: adding 'more' to 'quicker' is the trap, though here the adverb 'more quickly' is correct.
