• A. am
• B. is
• C. was
• D. were

Answer 1

Answer:

A. am

രണ്ടു subject നെ or, either....or, neither...nor, not only... but also എന്നിവ ചേർത്ത് ബന്ധിപ്പിച്ചാൽ second subject അനുസരിച്ചു verb എഴുതണം. First subject singular ആണെങ്കിൽ singular verb ; plural ആണെങ്കിൽ plural verb. When you have two subjects connected by "or", the verb agrees with the subject that is closest to it. In this sentence, "I" is closer to the verb. "I" always takes "am" (not "is" or "was"). അതിനാൽ 'am' ആണ് ഉത്തരം.
