Identify the sentence/s with correct use of adjectives.
(a) The flowers smell sweet.
(b) Gopal is senior to you by two years.
(c) This calf is elder than that.
(d) Many a times I remembered you.
Answer Options:

The correct answer is Option A (Only (a) and (b)).

Key Points:
• (a) 'The flowers smell sweet.' - Verbs of perception/sensation (smell, taste, look, feel) take predicate adjectives (sweet), not adverbs (sweetly). Hence, (a) is correct.
• (b) 'Gopal is senior to you by two years.' - Latin comparative adjectives ending in '-ior' (senior, junior, superior, inferior) are followed by 'to', not 'than'. Hence, (b) is correct.
• (c) 'This calf is elder than that.' - 'Elder' is used exclusively for persons within the same family, not for animals or inanimate things (which take 'older than'). Hence, (c) is incorrect.
• (d) 'Many a times I remembered you.' - The idiomatic quantifier 'many a' must be followed by a singular countable noun ('many a time', not 'many a times'). Hence, (d) is incorrect.
• Therefore, only (a) and (b) are correct.
• Key Takeaway: Verbs of sensation take adjectives (smell sweet); Latin comparatives take 'to' (senior to); 'elder' is restricted to human relatives.
