Which of these is a masculine word?

SELECT CORRECT OPTION:

Mercy (Daya)
दया
B
Poverty (Nirdhanta)
निर्धनता
C

बुढ़ापा
Correct
D
Accident (Durghatna)
दुर्घटना
Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option C (Old age (Budhapa))

'बुढ़ापा' भाववाचक पुल्लिंग शब्द है। जिन भाववाचक संज्ञाओं के अंत में पा, पन, वा, आव आदि प्रत्यय होते हैं, वे पुल्लिंग होती हैं। दया, निर्धनता तथा दुर्घटना स्त्रीलिंग शब्द हैं।

'Budhapa' (old age) is masculine. Abstract nouns formed with suffixes like '-pa', '-pan', and '-aav' are masculine. 'Daya', 'Nirdhanta', and 'Durghatna' are feminine.
