Question #1
Spot the error: 'The crowd was very huge.'
A. No error
B. crowd
C. was
D. very huge

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
'Huge' already means very large; 'very huge' is redundant but not incorrect. Some consider it acceptable; however, 'huge' is extreme adjective. Better: 'very large'. But many exams accept 'very huge' as error because 'huge' does not usually take 'very'. I'll keep as error: 'very huge' is often considered a mistake because 'huge' is a strong adjective. So correct answer A.
