Question

Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:
This project has been a great _______ (succeed).

• A. succeeded
• B. successful
• C. success
• D. successfully

Answer 1

The correct option is C success

In order to fill in the blank with the most suitable noun or verb, let's understand what nouns and verbs are.

Nouns are the naming words. For example: Roshni is pretty. Here, 'Roshni' is the noun.

Verbs are the action words. For example: Ram fought bravely. Here, 'Ram' is the noun, and 'fought is the verb.

NOTE: 'Success' can be used in the form of a noun as well as a verb.

Option A - 'Succeeded' can't be used here, as the adjective 'great' explains the noun form of 'succeed'. Hence, option A is incorrect.

Option B - 'Successful' is an adjective and not a noun. Hence, option B is incorrect.

Option D - 'Successfully' is an adjective and not a noun. Hence, option D is incorrect.

Option C - 'Success' is a noun, which is described in the sentence by the adjective 'great'. Hence, option C is the correct answer.

'This project has been a great success.'
