Trusthworthy and reliable are synonyms and either one of the two can only be used at a time in a sentence.this will cause redundancy and therefore option c is the right answer.
Rohit has a distinction (a) / of being the most trustworthily (b) / an...
Explanation:
The error in the sentence is in part (b). The correct word to use here is "trustworthy" instead of "trustworthily".
Corrected sentence:
Rohit has a distinction of being the most trustworthy and reliable of all the employees.
Explanation of the error:
The word "trustworthy" is an adjective that describes someone or something as deserving of trust or confidence. In the sentence, it is used to describe Rohit as the most trustworthy and reliable employee. The word "trustworthily" is an adverb, which is used to describe how an action is performed. Since we are describing Rohit as an employee, the correct form to use is the adjective "trustworthy" instead of the adverb "trustworthily".
Additional information:
- Adjectives modify or describe nouns or pronouns.
- Adverbs modify or describe verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.
- In this case, "trustworthy" is used to describe the noun "Rohit" and therefore, it should be in its adjective form.
