New: SSC Stenographer Application Form 2024 Released
Don't Miss: Month-wise current affairs
Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the second option.
The original sentence "There was a large various of clothes in the store" contains an incorrect use of the adjective various. In this context, "various" is not the appropriate adjective to describe the selection of clothes. One should use variety to convey the idea of a diverse range of clothes available in the store.
Humorous means funny, which is inappropriate in this context.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "There was a large variety of clothes in the store."
