QUESTION STATEMENT:

रेखांकित शब्द का बहुवचन बताइए- बारिश के कारण नदी का बहाव तेज हो गया था।

State the plural of the underlined word: 'Barish ke karan nadi ka bahav tej ho gaya tha.'

SELECT CORRECT OPTION:
A
Nadiyaan
नदियाँ
B
Nadiyon
नदियों
Correct
C
Nadion
नदीओं
D
Nadiya
नदिया
Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option B (Nadiyon)

'नदी' का सामान्य बहुवचन 'नदियाँ' होता है, परन्तु वाक्य में परसर्ग (का) के प्रयोग को ध्यान में रखते हुए इसका सविभक्तिक बहुवचन 'नदियों' होगा (नदियों का बहाव)।

Although the direct plural of 'nadi' is 'nadiyaan', the presence of the postposition 'ka' requires the oblique plural 'nadiyon'.
