EnglishGrammar: Adjective

Fill in the blank in the given sentence with the correct word from th…

Fill in the blank in the given sentence with the correct word from the options given below:-

Agra is ______ from here than your hometown.

Answer & explanation+

Correct answer: option 2

The correct answer is Option (2) → farther

An adjective is a word that describes a noun or a pronoun, for example a tall tree, the food is tasty.

Complete sentence: Agra is farther from here than your hometown. "Than your hometown" compares two distances, so the comparative farther is needed.

OptionWhat it tellsExample
(1) farFar is the positive degree. It cannot be followed by "than".My school is not far from here.
(2) farther
(answer)
When two things are compared, the adjective takes the comparative degree, followed by than. "Far" has an irregular comparison:
  • far – farther – farthest: used for physical distance,
  • far – further – furthest: used for distance and also for "more, additional" (further details).
Chennai is farther from Delhi than Jaipur is.
(3) more furtherFurther is already a comparative, so "more further" is a double comparative.We walked further along the beach.
(4) very farVery only strengthens the positive degree. It makes no comparison and cannot be followed by "than".He lives very far from the city.
