Determiners MCQ For Class 10 Term 1 Exam
Determiners are words like much, many, some or all. They go at the beginning of noun phrases; however, they are not exactly adjectives. While adjectives have positive, comparative and superlative forms, many determiners do not have such forms. There are some exceptions to this rule. For example, the word little has comparative and superlative forms – less and least. Likewise, much and many have comparative and superlative forms – more and most.
