Question

Either Rahul or Riya _______ taken my book.

• A. have
• B. has
• C. will
• D. had

Answer 1

Answer:

B. has

• "either...or" ഉപയോഗിച്ച് രണ്ട് subjects (Rahul, Riya) യോജിപ്പിക്കുമ്പോൾ, രണ്ടാമത്തെ subject (Riya) അനുസരിച്ച് verb ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നു.  രണ്ടാമത്തെ subject singular ആയാൽ singular verb -ഉം, plural ആയാൽ plural verb -ഉം ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നു. 
• Riya is singular, so has is the right option.
• "have" is incorrect because it is a plural verb form.
• The verb "had" here indicates past perfect tense. But here it is a present or past action.
• The sentence is talking about a past or present action, "will" is typically used to indicate future actions.
