I saw _____ boy.

Aa

Ban

Cthe

Dno article

Answer:

A. a

Read Explanation:

  • Usage: We use "a" because "boy" starts with a consonant sound ('b').

  • Rule: Use "a" before singular nouns that begin with a consonant sound.

  • Another Example:

    • "a cat"

    • "a house"

  • "an": This would be incorrect because "an" is used before words that start with a vowel sound. Since "boy" starts with a consonant sound, "a" is appropriate.

  • "no article": This option is incorrect because "boy" is a singular noun and requires an article in this context.

  • "the": This would suggest a specific boy that the speaker and listener both know about, which is not indicated in the sentence. " The ", ഒരു പ്രത്യേക വ്യക്തിയെ അല്ലെങ്കിൽ വ്യക്തികളെ, വസ്തുവിനെ അല്ലെങ്കിൽ വസ്തുക്കളെ സൂചിപ്പിക്കുന്നു. അതിനാൽ "definite article" അഥവാ നിശ്‌ചിത ഉപപദം എന്ന് പറയുന്നു. ഇവിടെ ഒരു particular boy നെ കുറിച്ചല്ല പറഞ്ഞിരിക്കുന്നത്. അതുകൊണ്ടാണ് a ഉപയോഗിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നത്.
