Correct Answer: Many a man
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
Explanation:
The original sentence uses "many man", which is grammatically incorrect. When expressing the idea of multiple individuals in this context, the correct form is "many a man", indicating a multitude of individual men. The use of "many a" is a set phrase that is followed by a singular noun, and it conveys the sense of a considerable number of individuals.
So, the correct sentence would be: Many a man has tried to find the caves, but none have succeeded.
