Say whether the following sentences are correct or incorrect. Choose the correct alternative.
(I) My brother and his friend commutes every day.
(II) Measles have become less common in the United States.
योग्य उत्तर पर्याय ४ (D) (Both (I) and (II) are incorrect) आहे.
महत्त्वाचे मुद्दे (Key Points):
• दोन्ही वाक्यांमध्ये कर्ता-क्रियापद सहमती (Subject-Verb Agreement) च्या चुका आहेत.
• वाक्य १: 'My brother and his friend' हा कर्ता अनेकवचनी (Plural) आहे. त्यामुळे क्रियापद 'commute' असायला हवे, 'commutes' नाही.
• वाक्य २: 'Measles' (गोवर) हा एका आजाराचे नाव असून तो एकवचनी (Singular) कर्ता आहे. शेवटी 's' असला तरी क्रियापद 'has' हवे, 'have' नाही.
• दोन्ही वाक्ये चुकीची असल्यामुळे पर्याय ४ अचूक आहे.
• महत्त्वाची टीप: नियम: 'and' ने जोडलेले कर्ते अनेकवचनी असतात. 'Measles' सारखे आजारांचे नाव नेहमी एकवचनी असते.
The correct answer is Option D (Both (I) and (II) are incorrect).
Key Points:
• Both sentences contain Subject-Verb Agreement errors.
• In sentence I, the subject is plural ('My brother and his friend'). The verb should be plural 'commute', not the singular 'commutes'.
• In sentence II, 'Measles' is the name of a specific disease. Although it ends in 's', it is a singular noun and requires a singular verb ('has'). The use of 'have' is incorrect.
• Since both contain errors, Option 4 is correct.
• Key Takeaway: Subjects joined by 'and' take plural verbs. Diseases ending in 's' (Measles, Mumps) are singular and take singular verbs.
