Question

Tap the sentence that does NOT correctly use the superlative form of the adverb ‘politely’.

• A. Dr. Raj spoke with his patients most politely.
• B. <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Rega declined the offer most politely.
• C. They behaved most politliest around their teachers.
• D. <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> She asked me my name most politely.

Answer 1

The correct option is C They behaved most politliest around their teachers.

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Here, ‘politliest’ is incorrect as the superlative form of the adverb ‘politely’ is ‘most politely’. This is because ‘politely’ has three syllables.
