Answer 1

Answer:

A. Only ii

The correct versions would be:

• i) One of my relatives has gone abroad. (singular verb "has" to match the singular subject "one.")
• iii) He hung the picture on the wall.
  • "Hung" is used when referring to placing or suspending something in a vertical position. For example, "He hung the picture on the wall."(തൂക്കിയിട്ട)
  • "Hanged" is used when referring to the act of executing someone by hanging them. For example, "The criminal was hanged for his crimes."(തൂക്കിലേറ്റി)
• iv) One should respect one's parents and elders. ( It uses "one's" to avoid specifying gender)
