Q1 FREE PREVIEW

I have nothing ................... to say.

(Choose the correct option)

a

further

b

neither

c

farther

d

either

✓ Correct answer: a)

further

Explanation

The correct option is A.

Here, 'further' means additional / more. “I have nothing further to say.” means 'I have no more to add'.

Other Options:

  • 'Farther' refers to physical distance (comparative of 'far').

    • Example: We walked farther than we planned.

    • Not correct here because the sentence is about adding information, not distance.

  • 'Neither' and 'Either' are used when making a choice between two things. They do not mean "additional" or "more," so they do not fit the context of this sentence.

Quick Trick to Remember

  • If you can replace the word with 'additional' or 'more', use Further.

  • If you are talking about physical miles/meters, use Farther.
