QUESTION STATEMENT:

पुल्लिंग संज्ञा के स्थान पर स्त्रीलिंग कर देने से 'काला' विशेषण का क्या रूप होगा?

What form does the adjective 'Kaala' (black) take when paired with a feminine noun instead of a masculine noun?

SELECT CORRECT OPTION:
A
Kaale
काले
B
Kaala
काला
C
Kaalon
कालों
D
Kaali
काली
Correct
Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option D (Kaali)

आकारान्त विशेषण (काला) स्त्रीलिंग संज्ञा के साथ प्रयुक्त होने पर ईकारान्त (काली) हो जाता है; जैसे- काला घोड़ा -> काली घोड़ी, काली रात आदि।

Marked masculine adjectives ending in '-aa' shift to '-ee' to agree with feminine nouns; hence 'Kaala' becomes 'Kaali' (e.g., kaala kutta -> kaali kutiya).
