Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
The ice-cream tasted _____ soap.

• A. in
• B. of
• C. with
• D. from

Answer 1

The correct option is B of

A preposition is a word which comes before a noun or a pronoun and establishes a relationship between the elements of a clause or words.

The correct answer is option B) of as it indicates similarity.

'In', 'with' and 'from' cannot be used here as they indicate a place within a larger area, inclusion and a source respectively.

The ice-cream tasted of soap.
