Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
She's __________ than her sister.

• A. much nicer
• B. more nicer
• C. much more nicer
• D. more nice

Answer 1

The correct option is A much nicer

If we look into this sentence, two things are compared, "She" and "her sister". Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences between the two objects. We will fill the blank with a comparative degree of an adjective. First of all, the comparative degree is "nicer" as it is a word with a single syllable. The rule for single syllable word is the addition of -er for the comparative.

Option A: Is correct as it uses the comparative degree. With that, the property of being nice is enhanced by the usage of the word "much"

Option B: Is wrong. "More" is used for countable nouns, and niceness is uncountable.

Option C: Is wrong as "more nicer" itself is wrong (refer last option)

Option D: "more nice" is also wrong as more is only added in comparative degree when it is a three syllable word.

Option A is correct
