Question : Directions: In the question, a part of the sentence is in bold. Below are given alternatives to the bold part at 1, 2 and 3 that may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. In case no improvement is needed, your answer is (4).
I contradicted against him.
(1) contradicted over
(2) contradicted with
(3) contradicted
(4) No Improvement
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 2
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 3
Solution : The correct answer is the third option.
"Contradicted against" should be replaced with "contradicted".
The use of "against" with "contradict" is incorrect and redundant. The options "contradict with" and "contradict over" don't make any sense and are incorrect. There is an error in the use of the preposition in the sentence.
Therefore, the correct statement should be: "I contradicted him."
