Question : Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, select 'No error'.
It would be neat and / cleanest, a home worthy of / spending our lives together.
Option 1: cleanest, a home worthy of
Option 2: spending our lives together.
Option 3: It would be neat and
Option 4: No error
Correct Answer: cleanest, a home worthy of
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
Explanation : The error lies in the inconsistent use of comparative adjectives. The adjective "neat" is a positive form, but the comparative "cleanest" is used afterwards. To maintain parallelism and consistency, both adjectives should either be in their positive form or their comparative form.
So, the correct sentence would be: It would be neat and clean , a home worthy of spending our lives together.
