Choose the most appropriate pair to fill in the blank.

Though Neetika is known to crack some _____jokes but Nisha is ____ than Neekita.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Option 1 -> "some funnier jokes" lacks a comparison reference, and "funniest than" is grammatically incorrect (superlative can't be used with "than").

Option 2 -> "some funniest jokes" is awkward phrasing, and "funny than" is incorrect (base adjective can't be used with "than").

Option 3 -> "some funny jokes" is natural and correct, and "funnier than" is the proper comparative form for comparison.

Option 4 -> "some quite funny" is awkward, and "more funnier" is a double comparative error (should be either "funnier" OR "more funny," not both).


Hence, Option 3: funny, funnier -> The first blank needs the base adjective "funny" to describe jokes, while the second blank requires the comparative form "funnier" because it's making a direct comparison using "than" -> correct
