TERİMLER:
- the least difficult: En az zor olan
The correct variant is E) the least difficult.
The sentence is comparing the difficulty of this book to other books. The superlative form of the adjective “difficult” is “least difficult,” which indicates the lowest degree of difficulty. So, option E is the most accurate choice to express that this book is the least difficult to understand.
Option A) “a much difficult” is incorrect because it is not the superlative form of “difficult.”
Option B) “a more difficult” is incorrect because it suggests that the book is more difficult than one other particular book, but the sentence doesn’t specify any comparison to a specific book.
Option C) “a less difficult” is incorrect because it suggests that the book is slightly less difficult than some other books, but the sentence doesn’t convey that degree of nuance.
Option D) “least difficult” is incorrect because it lacks the indefinite article “a” before “least difficult.”
Therefore, the only grammatically correct and contextually appropriate option is E) “the least difficult.”
