Question 1Kannada grammar and word structure

In Kannada grammar (ವ್ಯಾಕರಣ), what does ಸಂಧಿ (sandhi) primarily describe?

  1. The seven case endings of nouns only
  2. Phonetic joining or change when two word parts meet at a boundary Correct answer.
  3. Only synonym pairs used in poetry
  4. The meter count of a verse line

Explanation

Sandhi (ಸಂಧಿ) is the set of morphophonemic rules that govern how sounds change or combine when two forms join (for example, vowel elision, insertion, or consonant substitution).

Question 2Kannada grammar and word structure

Which Kannada sandhi type is defined by elision (loss) of a vowel when two forms join?

  1. ಆಗಮ ಸಂಧಿ (Agama sandhi)
  2. ಆದೇಶ ಸಂಧಿ (Adesha sandhi)
  3. ಲೋಪ ಸಂಧಿ (Lopa sandhi) Correct answer.
  4. ದ್ವಂದ್ವ ಸಮಾಸ (Dvandva samasa)

Explanation

Lopa sandhi (ಲೋಪ ಸಂಧಿ) involves deletion of a sound-typically a final vowel of the first part-when forms combine (classic school example pattern: nānu + illi → nānilli).

Question 3Kannada grammar and word structure

In Kannada, ಆಗಮ ಸಂಧಿ (agama sandhi) is best described as:

  1. Deletion of the entire first word
  2. Insertion of an extra sound (such as y or v) between joining parts Correct answer.
  3. Replacing a vowel with a case ending
  4. Counting syllables in a poem

Explanation

Agama sandhi inserts a euphonic glide or consonant (commonly y-agama or v-agama) when vowel-final and vowel-initial parts combine, preventing a harsh vowel clash.

Question 4Kannada grammar and word structure

Which process best matches ಆದೇಶ ಸಂಧಿ (adesha sandhi) in Kannada school grammar?

  1. Two independent words remain completely unchanged when written side by side
  2. A consonant at the start of the second part is replaced (for example, k→g, t→d, p→b patterns taught in textbooks) Correct answer.
  3. Only long vowels can ever combine
  4. A proverb is shortened into one syllable

Explanation

Adesha sandhi involves substitution: under textbook rules, an initial voiceless stop of the second member may be replaced by its voiced counterpart when sandhi conditions apply (classic rainy-season type examples: male + kāla → malegāla patterns).

Question 5Kannada grammar and word structure

Why do Class 10 Kannada papers test sandhi splitting (ಸಂಧಿ ವಿಭಜನೆ)?

  1. Because sandhi is only used in English loanwords
  2. To check whether students can reverse joining rules and recover the original word parts Correct answer.
  3. Because sandhi replaces all literature questions
  4. Because sandhi is identical to vibhakti

Explanation

Sandhi-vicheda (splitting) shows that the learner understands which rule formed a fused surface form and can restore meaningful components-core first-language analysis skill.

Question 6Kannada grammar and word structure

Yakaragama and vakaragama are subtypes most closely associated with which sandhi family?

  1. ಲೋಪ ಸಂಧಿ only
  2. ಆಗಮ ಸಂಧಿ (insertion of y- or v-) Correct answer.
  3. ಸಮಾಸ classification only
  4. ಛಂದಸ್ಸು meters only

Explanation

School and computational descriptions of Kannada agama sandhi commonly distinguish y-agama (ಯಕಾರಾಗಮ) and v-agama (ವಕಾರಾಗಮ) as insertion subtypes.

Question 7Kannada grammar and word structure

When analysing a sandhi form in an exam, which first step is most reliable?

  1. Ignore vowels and look only at English transliteration
  2. Identify the boundary between first and second members, then match the change to lopa, agama, or adesha rules Correct answer.
  3. Always call every fusion 'dvandva'
  4. Count how many alankaras appear in the sentence

Explanation

Boundary identification plus rule-matching prevents confusing sandhi with samasa labels and anchors the answer in the actual sound change.

Question 8Kannada grammar and word structure

Which statement correctly distinguishes sandhi from samasa?

  1. Sandhi is about sound change at junctions; samasa is about compounding word meanings into one unit Correct answer.
  2. Sandhi and samasa are identical synonyms
  3. Samasa only applies to English words
  4. Sandhi is only used in mathematics papers

Explanation

Sandhi concerns morphophonemics (how sounds change when forms meet). Samasa concerns compounding (how two stems form one compound with a unitary meaning structure).

Question 9Kannada grammar and word structure

In a carefully written answer on lopa sandhi, which evidence is strongest?

  1. A vague claim that 'sounds sometimes change'
  2. Showing the two original forms, the deleted element, and the resulting fused form Correct answer.
  3. Listing seven vibhakti names only
  4. Translating the sentence into pure English without Kannada forms

Explanation

High-scoring grammar answers show components (pūrvapada + uttarapada), the operation (which sound is lost), and the surface result.

Question 10Kannada grammar and word structure

Which pair best illustrates the school-grammar idea of adesha (substitution) rather than pure addition of a letter?

  1. Inserting only y between two vowels with no other change described
  2. Replacing an initial k-sound of the second member with g- in the fused form (textbook adesha pattern) Correct answer.
  3. Deleting a whole noun phrase
  4. Changing a poem’s meter from short to long

Explanation

Adesha is replacement of one sound by another under sandhi conditions; the k→g (and related) patterns are classic textbook illustrations of substitution.

Question 11Kannada grammar and word structure

Purvapada (ಪೂರ್ವಪದ) and uttarapada (ಉತ್ತರಪದ) in sandhi discussions refer to:

  1. The first and second members of the joining pair Correct answer.
  2. Only feminine and masculine gender labels
  3. Only the title and author of a poem
  4. Paper I and Paper II hall ticket numbers

Explanation

In traditional analysis, pūrvapada is the preceding member and uttarapada the following member whose boundary sounds interact under sandhi.

Question 12Kannada grammar and word structure

A student marks every consonant change as 'lopa sandhi'. What conceptual error is this?

  1. None - all consonant changes are lopa by definition
  2. Lopa is specifically loss/elision; many consonant changes are adesha (substitution) or other operations Correct answer.
  3. Sandhi never involves consonants
  4. Lopa only applies to English acronyms

Explanation

Accurate labelling requires distinguishing elision (lopa), insertion (agama), and substitution (adesha). Mislabeling substitutions as lopa loses marks.

Question 13Kannada grammar and word structure

In Kannada/Sanskrit-influenced school grammar, ಸಮಾಸ (samasa) means:

  1. A compound word formed from two (or more) stems treated as one unit Correct answer.
  2. A single independent word with no internal structure
  3. A verse metre pattern used only in classical poetry
  4. A synonym for antonym (ವಿರುದ್ಧಾರ್ಥಕ)

Explanation

Samasa is compounding: multiple stems combine into one compound with a unitary grammatical behaviour and a structured meaning relation between members.

Question 14Kannada grammar and word structure

ದ್ವಂದ್ವ ಸಮಾಸ (dvandva samasa) is best characterised as:

  1. A compound where members stand in a coordinative 'and' relationship (A and B) Correct answer.
  2. A compound that always means the opposite of both members
  3. A meter name in chandassu
  4. A sandhi that only deletes consonants

Explanation

Dvandva compounds coordinate members (like 'father-mother' type dual/plural sets), rather than one member strictly modifying the other as in many tatpurusha types.

Question 15Kannada grammar and word structure

ತತ್ಪುರುಷ ಸಮಾಸ (tatpurusha) typically shows which meaning structure?

  1. The second member is primary and the first determines/relates to it (determinative compound) Correct answer.
  2. Both members are always meaningless sound-echoes
  3. Only numbers may appear as members
  4. It is identical to anuprasa alankara

Explanation

Tatpurusha is a determinative compound: the first member depends on the second (e.g., 'god’s house' → temple-type structure in classic examples), with the second as head.

Question 16Kannada grammar and word structure

ಕರ್ಮಧಾರಯ ಸಮಾಸ (karmadharaya) is a samasa type in which:

  1. The members stand in an attributive/descriptive relation (often adjective + noun type) Correct answer.
  2. Only verbs may be compounded
  3. No meaning relation exists between members
  4. The compound must be a full sentence

Explanation

Karmadharaya (often taught as a tatpurusha subtype) pairs a qualifier with a qualified head-e.g., colour/quality + noun-forming a descriptive compound.

Question 17Kannada grammar and word structure

ದ್ವಿಗು ಸಮಾಸ (dvigu) is specially associated with:

  1. A numerical first member counting or measuring the second Correct answer.
  2. Only onomatopoeic animal sounds
  3. Deletion of all vowels
  4. Paper code 01K only

Explanation

Dvigu compounds begin with a numeral and quantify the following member (the name dvigu itself is the classic example sense: 'two-cow' type numerative compound).

Question 18Kannada grammar and word structure

ಬಹುವ್ರೀಹಿ ಸಮಾಸ (bahuvrihi) is an exocentric compound because:

  1. The compound as a whole refers to something other than either member as head (often 'one who has X') Correct answer.
  2. It always means exactly the second member alone
  3. It can only be used in mathematics word problems
  4. It forbids any literary use

Explanation

Bahuvrihi compounds are possessive/exocentric: the whole denotes an entity characterised by the internal relation (classic 'much-rice' → a rich person type), not the head noun itself.

Question 19Kannada grammar and word structure

When an exam asks you to 'name the samasa' for a compound, what should your answer include?

  1. Only an English translation of the whole textbook chapter
  2. The samasa type label and a brief justification of the member relation Correct answer.
  3. Only the author's biography
  4. Only the hall ticket number

Explanation

Markers expect the correct type (dvandva, tatpurusha, karmadharaya, dvigu, bahuvrihi, etc.) plus a short reason based on how the members relate.

Question 20Kannada grammar and word structure

Which is a common student error when classifying samasa?

  1. Confusing sandhi sound-change labels with samasa meaning-structure labels Correct answer.
  2. Writing the compound in Kannada script
  3. Giving one example
  4. Checking the textbook glossary

Explanation

Students often answer 'lopa sandhi' when asked for samasa type. Sandhi explains sound fusion; samasa explains compound semantics-keep the taxonomies separate.

Question 21Kannada grammar and word structure

Avyayibhava (ಅವ್ಯಯೀಭಾವ) samasa is traditionally characterised as:

  1. An indeclinable-type compound functioning adverbially / as an avyaya unit Correct answer.
  2. A tatpurusha (determinative) compound
  3. A dvandva (copulative) compound
  4. A bahuvrihi (exocentric) compound

Explanation

Avyayībhāva compounds behave like indeclinables (avyaya), often with adverbial sense-one of the classical samasa major classes alongside tatpurusha, bahuvrihi, and dvandva.

Question 22Kannada grammar and word structure

Why are Sanskrit-derived samasa labels still taught in Kannada First Language classes?

  1. Because Kannada literary and school grammar historically use this compound taxonomy Correct answer.
  2. Because Kannada has no native words
  3. Because BSEAP only tests English grammar
  4. Because samasa is banned in modern Kannada

Explanation

Kannada school vyakarana inherits classical compound classification used across Sanskritic and Dravidian school traditions; students must recognise the standard type names.

Question 23Kannada grammar and word structure

In tatpurusha analysis, which member is typically treated as the head (pradhāna)?

  1. The second member Correct answer.
  2. Neither member ever
  3. Only a number written in English
  4. The paper code printed on the question paper

Explanation

In standard tatpurusha description, the second member is the head and the first is dependent (determinative).

Question 24Kannada grammar and word structure

ವಿಭಕ್ತಿ (vibhakti) in Kannada grammar refers to:

  1. Case forms/endings that mark a noun’s grammatical role in the sentence Correct answer.
  2. Only the rhyme scheme of a poem
  3. Only synonym lists
  4. Only the title page of a textbook

Explanation

Vibhakti are the case system (traditionally seven cases) realised by pratyaya (endings) that signal subject, object, instrument, location, and related roles.

Question 25Kannada grammar and word structure

How many vibhakti (cases) do traditional Kannada grammarians commonly teach?

  1. Three
  2. Five
  3. Seven Correct answer.
  4. Twelve

Explanation

School grammar traditionally lists seven cases (prathamā through saptamī), analogous to the classical case inventory.

Question 26Kannada grammar and word structure

ಪ್ರಥಮಾ ವಿಭಕ್ತಿ (prathama) most typically marks:

  1. The nominative / subject-like citation form of the noun Correct answer.
  2. Only the locative 'in/on/at' sense
  3. Only the genitive 'of' sense
  4. Only the imperative verb form

Explanation

Prathamā is the first/nominative case used for the subject and dictionary/citation forms, depending on construction.

Question 27Kannada grammar and word structure

ಸಪ್ತಮೀ ವಿಭಕ್ತಿ (saptamī) is the case most associated with:

  1. Locative relations (in/on/at / among) Correct answer.
  2. Only coordinating conjunctions
  3. Only bahuvrihi compounds
  4. Only proverb expansion essays

Explanation

Saptamī marks location and related locative senses; textbook endings such as -alli type locatives are taught under this case family.

Question 28Kannada grammar and word structure

When transforming a sentence across vibhakti for practice, what must stay coherent?

  1. The semantic role intended (who did what to whom/where) with the correct ending Correct answer.
  2. Only the English word order of every gloss
  3. Deleting all verbs
  4. Replacing every noun with a number

Explanation

Vibhakti drills check whether endings match intended roles; changing endings without tracking meaning produces ungrammatical or unintended sentences.

Question 29Kannada grammar and word structure

Which is the best study method for vibhakti before SSC papers?

  1. Memorise one noun’s full case paradigm and then generalise patterns to similar stems Correct answer.
  2. Ignore endings and rely only on word order like English
  3. Study only alankara definitions
  4. Skip grammar and write only free essays

Explanation

Paradigm practice (one clear noun across seven cases) builds recognition of endings that reappear on exam transformation and fill-in items.

Question 30Kannada grammar and word structure

ಅಲಂಕಾರ (alankara) in literary grammar means:

  1. Figures of speech / ornamental devices that enhance expression Correct answer.
  2. Only the physical cover of a book
  3. Only mathematical symbols
  4. Only the exam duration

Explanation

Alankara are rhetorical/literary figures (simile, metaphor, hyperbole, alliteration, etc.) studied in First Language literature and grammar.

Question 31Kannada grammar and word structure

ಉಪಮಾ ಅಲಂಕಾರ (upama) is:

  1. A simile - explicit comparison using a comparison marker (like/as equivalents) Correct answer.
  2. A complete denial that any comparison exists
  3. A type of genitive case only
  4. A sandhi that deletes all consonants

Explanation

Upama is simile: A is compared to B with an explicit comparative element, a staple Class 10 alankara.

Question 32Kannada grammar and word structure

ರೂಪಕ ಅಲಂಕಾರ (rupaka) differs from upama mainly because:

  1. It identifies one thing as another (metaphor) without a separate explicit 'like' comparison word Correct answer.
  2. It can only be used in science lab reports
  3. It always requires seven case endings in one word
  4. It is identical to lopa sandhi

Explanation

Rupaka is metaphor: the subject is presented as the object of comparison (A is B), whereas upama keeps them distinct with a comparison marker.

Question 33Kannada grammar and word structure

When identifying alankara in a poem line, the strongest method is to:

  1. Match the line’s comparison/sound/exaggeration pattern to a named figure with textual evidence Correct answer.
  2. Always answer 'dvandva samasa' for every line
  3. Count only the number of English words
  4. Ignore the Kannada text and invent a theme

Explanation

Alankara answers need a label plus proof from the line (what is compared, what is exaggerated, which sounds repeat).

Question 34Kannada grammar and word structure

Why might a hard poetry question combine alankara and chandassu?

  1. Because sound patterning and figurative meaning often co-create poetic effect Correct answer.
  2. Because chandassu cancels all meaning
  3. Because alankara is only for prose notices
  4. Because BSEAP forbids poetry

Explanation

Advanced items ask how meter/sound devices and figures jointly produce rasa or emphasis-integrated literary skill.

Question 35Kannada grammar and word structure

ಶಬ್ದಾಲಂಕಾರ vs ಅರ್ಥಾಲಂಕಾರ is a useful school distinction because:

  1. Some figures play on sound (e.g., anuprasa) while others play on meaning (e.g., upama, atishayokti) Correct answer.
  2. All figures are only about spelling reform
  3. Meaning figures never appear in Kannada
  4. Sound figures are illegal in exams

Explanation

Classifying a figure as sound-based or sense-based helps students choose the right label quickly under time pressure.

Question 36Kannada grammar and word structure

A line that says a hero’s fame 'touches the sky' most likely invites which alankara discussion?

  1. ಅತಿಶಯೋಕ್ತಿ (hyperbole) and/or related exaggeration figures Correct answer.
  2. Only saptamī vibhakti listing
  3. Only exam fee calculation
  4. Only sandhi lopa of English words

Explanation

Extreme elevation of fame beyond literal possibility is hyperbolic-classic atishayokti territory (sometimes analysed with related figures depending on exact wording).

Question 37Kannada grammar and word structure

ಕರ್ತರಿ and ಕರ್ಮಣಿ prayoga discussions concern:

  1. Active vs passive (agent-oriented vs patient-oriented) constructions Correct answer.
  2. Only two types of sandhi
  3. Only letter formats
  4. Only proverb morals

Explanation

Kartari/karmani terminology (shared with broader Indian school grammar) frames active vs passive voice constructions tested in transformation items.

Question 38Kannada grammar and word structure

ನಾಮಪದ, ಸರ್ವನಾಮ, and ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದ are primary word-class labels for:

  1. Noun, pronoun, and verb Correct answer.
  2. Only three alankaras
  3. Only three meters
  4. Only three paper codes

Explanation

These are basic parts of speech: nāmapada (noun), sarvanāma (pronoun), kriyāpada (verb)-foundation for parsing sentences.

Question 39Kannada grammar and word structure

A hard grammar item mixes sandhi inside a samasa. What should you do first?

  1. Identify the compound’s meaning relation (samasa type), then explain any sound change (sandhi) at the junction if asked Correct answer.
  2. Pick any alankara at random
  3. Ignore Kannada script
  4. Answer only with the year 2026

Explanation

Separate the questions: samasa = semantic structure; sandhi = phonological junction. Address each with the matching evidence.

Question 40Kannada grammar and word structure

'ಮಗುವಿಗೆ ಹಾಲು ಕೊಡು' - ಈ ವಾಕ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ 'ಮಗುವಿಗೆ' ಪದವು ಹೊಂದಿರುವ ವಿಭಕ್ತಿ ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯ ಯಾವುದು?

  1. ಸಂಬೋಧನಾ
  2. ದ್ವಿತೀಯಾ
  3. ಪ್ರಥಮಾ
  4. ಚತುರ್ಥೀ Correct answer.

Explanation

ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಎಂಟು ವಿಭಕ್ತಿಗಳಿದ್ದು, ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದಕ್ಕೂ ನಿರ್ದಿಷ್ಟ ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯಗಳಿವೆ. 'ಗೆ/ಆಗೆ' ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯ ಚತುರ್ಥೀ ವಿಭಕ್ತಿಗೆ ಸೇರಿದ್ದು, ಸಂಪ್ರದಾನ ಅರ್ಥದಲ್ಲಿ ಬರುತ್ತದೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ 'ಮಗುವಿಗೆ' ಎಂಬುದು ಹಾಲು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸುವವರನ್ನು ಸೂಚಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.

Question 41Kannada grammar and word structure

ಕೆಳಗಿನ ಪದಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಸ್ತ್ರೀಲಿಂಗಕ್ಕೆ ಸೇರಿದ ಪದ ಯಾವುದು?

  1. ಹುಡುಗ
  2. ಮನೆ
  3. ಹುಡುಗಿ Correct answer.
  4. ಹುಡುಗರು

Explanation

ಸ್ತ್ರೀಜಾತಿಯನ್ನು ಸೂಚಿಸುವ ನಾಮಪದವನ್ನು ಸ್ತ್ರೀಲಿಂಗ ಎನ್ನುತ್ತಾರೆ. 'ಹುಡುಗಿ' ಹೆಣ್ಣು ಮಗುವನ್ನು ಸೂಚಿಸುವುದರಿಂದ ಸ್ತ್ರೀಲಿಂಗವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಉಳಿದ ಪದಗಳು ಪುಲ್ಲಿಂಗ ಅಥವಾ ನಪುಂಸಕಲಿಂಗಕ್ಕೆ ಸೇರುತ್ತವೆ.

Question 42Kannada grammar and word structure

'ರಾಮಾಲಕ್ಷ್ಮಣರು' ಎಂಬ ಸಮಸ್ತ ಪದದಲ್ಲಿ ಯಾವ ಸಮಾಸವಿದೆ?

  1. ದ್ವಂದ್ವ Correct answer.
  2. ತತ್ಪುರುಷ
  3. ಕರ್ಮಧಾರಯ
  4. ಬಹುವ್ರೀಹಿ

Explanation

ದ್ವಂದ್ವ ಸಮಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ ಎರಡೂ ಪದಗಳು ಸಮಾನ ಪ್ರಧಾನವಾಗಿದ್ದು, 'ಮತ್ತು' ಅರ್ಥದಲ್ಲಿ ಜೋಡಣೆಯಾಗುತ್ತವೆ. 'ರಾಮಾಲಕ್ಷ್ಮಣರು' ಎಂದರೆ ರಾಮ ಮತ್ತು ಲಕ್ಷ್ಮಣ ಎಂದರ್ಥ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ಇದು ದ್ವಂದ್ವ ಸಮಾಸಕ್ಕೆ ಉದಾಹರಣೆಯಾಗಿದೆ.

Question 43Kannada grammar and word structure

'ಮಳೆ + ಇಂದ' ಎಂಬ ಸಂಧಿಯಿಂದ ಉಂಟಾಗುವ ಸರಿಯಾದ ರೂಪ ಮತ್ತು ಸಂಧಿಯ ಪ್ರಕಾರ ಯಾವುದು?

  1. ಮಳೆಯಿಂದ – ಆಗಮ ಸಂಧಿ Correct answer.
  2. ಮಳೆಂದ – ಆಗಮ ಸಂಧಿ
  3. ಮಳಿಂದ – ಲೋಪ ಸಂಧಿ
  4. ಮಳೆಯಿಂದ – ಆದೇಶ ಸಂಧಿ

Explanation

ಸಂಧಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಹೊಸ ವರ್ಣ ಬಂದು ಸೇರಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವುದನ್ನು ಆಗಮ ಸಂಧಿ ಎನ್ನುತ್ತಾರೆ. 'ಮಳೆ' ಹಾಗೂ 'ಇಂದ' ಸೇರುವಾಗ 'ಯ್' ಆಗಮವಾಗಿ ಬಂದು 'ಮಳೆಯಿಂದ' ಎಂಬ ರೂಪ ಉಂಟಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಯಾವ ವರ್ಣವೂ ಲೋಪವಾಗಲಿ, ಬದಲಾಗಲಿ ಇಲ್ಲ.

Question 44Kannada grammar and word structure

ಕೆಳಗಿನವುಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಅಸಮಾಪಕ ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದ ಯಾವುದು?

  1. ಓದುತ್ತಾನೆ
  2. ಓದಿದನು
  3. ಓದಿ Correct answer.
  4. ಓದುವನು

Explanation

ವಾಕ್ಯವನ್ನು ಪೂರ್ಣಗೊಳಿಸದೆ ಮುಂದಿನ ಕ್ರಿಯೆಗೆ ಸೇರುವ ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದವನ್ನು ಅಸಮಾಪಕ ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದ ಎನ್ನುತ್ತಾರೆ. 'ಓದಿ' ಎಂಬ ರೂಪ ಮುಂದಿನ ಕ್ರಿಯೆಗೆ ಅಂಟಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತದೆ, ವಾಕ್ಯವನ್ನು ಮುಗಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಉಳಿದ ಮೂರು ರೂಪಗಳು ವಾಕ್ಯವನ್ನು ಪೂರ್ಣಗೊಳಿಸುವ ಸಮಾಪಕ ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದಗಳು.

Question 45Kannada grammar and word structure

ಸಂಸ್ಕೃತದ 'ಯಾತ್ರೆ' ಎಂಬ ಪದದ ತದ್ಭವ ರೂಪ ಯಾವುದು?

  1. ಯಾತ್ರ
  2. ಜಾತ್ರಿ
  3. ಜಾತ್ರೆ Correct answer.
  4. ಯಾತ್ರಿಕ

Explanation

ಸಂಸ್ಕೃತ ಪದ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಬದಲಾಗಿ ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಬಳಕೆಯಾಗುವ ರೂಪವನ್ನು ತದ್ಭವ ಎನ್ನುತ್ತಾರೆ. 'ಯಾತ್ರೆ' ಪದದಿಂದ 'ಜಾತ್ರೆ' ಎಂಬ ರೂಪ ಉಂಟಾಗಿದ್ದು ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ ಬಳಕೆಯಲ್ಲಿದೆ. ಹಾಗಾಗಿ ಅದು ತದ್ಭವ ಪದವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.

Question 46Kannada grammar and word structure

'ಅವನು ಬೇಗ ಓಡಿದನು' - ಈ ವಾಕ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ 'ಬೇಗ' ಎಂಬ ಕ್ರಿಯಾವಿಶೇಷಣವು ಯಾವುದನ್ನು ವಿಶೇಷಿಸುತ್ತದೆ?

  1. ಸರ್ವನಾಮವನ್ನು
  2. ನಾಮಪದವನ್ನು
  3. ವಿಶೇಷಣವನ್ನು
  4. ಕ್ರಿಯೆಯನ್ನು Correct answer.

Explanation

ಕ್ರಿಯಾವಿಶೇಷಣವು ಕ್ರಿಯೆಯ ರೀತಿ, ಕಾಲ ಅಥವಾ ಸ್ಥಳವನ್ನು ಸ್ಪಷ್ಟಪಡಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ 'ಬೇಗ' ಎಂಬುದು 'ಓಡಿದನು' ಎಂಬ ಕ್ರಿಯೆಯ ವೇಗವನ್ನು ವಿಶೇಷಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ಅದು ಕ್ರಿಯೆಯನ್ನು ಅಲಂಕರಿಸುವ ಪದವಾಗಿದೆ.

Question 47Kannada grammar and word structure

'ಅವಳು ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿ ಹಾಡಿದಳು' - ಈ ವಾಕ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಸರ್ವನಾಮ ಪದ ಯಾವುದು?

  1. ಚೆನ್ನ
  2. ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿ
  3. ಅವಳು Correct answer.
  4. ಹಾಡಿದಳು

Explanation

ನಾಮಪದದ ಬದಲಿಗೆ ಬಳಸುವ ಪದವನ್ನು ಸರ್ವನಾಮ ಎನ್ನುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ 'ಅವಳು' ಎಂಬುದು ಒಬ್ಬ ಹೆಣ್ಣಿನ ಹೆಸರಿನ ಬದಲಿಗೆ ಬಂದಿದೆ. ಉಳಿದ ಪದಗಳು ಕ್ರಿಯಾವಿಶೇಷಣ, ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದ ಹಾಗೂ ವಿಶೇಷಣ ರೂಪಗಳು.

Question 48Kannada grammar and word structure

'ಮರದಿಂದ ಎಲೆ ಬಿತ್ತು' - ಈ ವಾಕ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ 'ಮರದಿಂದ' ಪದವು ಯಾವ ಕಾರಕ?

  1. ಕರಣ
  2. ಸಂಪ್ರದಾನ
  3. ಅಪಾದಾನ Correct answer.
  4. ಅಧಿಕರಣ

Explanation

ಬೇರ್ಪಡುವಿಕೆ ಅಥವಾ ಮೂಲವನ್ನು ಸೂಚಿಸುವ 'ಇಂದ/ದಿಂದ' ಪ್ರತ್ಯಯ ಅಪಾದಾನ ಕಾರಕಕ್ಕೆ ಸೇರುತ್ತದೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಎಲೆ ಮರದಿಂದ ಬೇರ್ಪಟ್ಟು ಬಿತ್ತು ಎಂಬ ಅರ್ಥ ಬರುತ್ತದೆ. ಕರಣ ಕಾರಕವೂ 'ದಿಂದ' ಪಡೆದರೂ ಅದು ಸಾಧನದ ಅರ್ಥವನ್ನು ಮಾತ್ರ ಕೊಡುತ್ತದೆ.

Question 49Kannada grammar and word structure

'ಅವನು ಬಡಗಿಯಿಂದ ಮನೆ ಕಟ್ಟಿಸಿದನು' - ಇಲ್ಲಿ 'ಕಟ್ಟಿಸಿದನು' ಯಾವ ರೂಪದ ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದ?

  1. ಪ್ರೇರಣಾರ್ಥಕ Correct answer.
  2. ಸಂಭಾವನಾರ್ಥಕ
  3. ವಿಧ್ಯರ್ಥಕ
  4. ನಿಷೇಧಾರ್ಥಕ

Explanation

ಬೇರೊಬ್ಬರಿಂದ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡಿಸುವ ಅರ್ಥ ಬರುವ ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದವನ್ನು ಪ್ರೇರಣಾರ್ಥಕ ಕ್ರಿಯಾಪದ ಎನ್ನುತ್ತಾರೆ. 'ಕಟ್ಟಿಸಿದನು' ಎಂದರೆ ತಾನೇ ಕಟ್ಟದೆ ಬಡಗಿಯಿಂದ ಕಟ್ಟಿಸಿದನು ಎಂದರ್ಥ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕರ್ತೃವಲ್ಲದವರಿಂದ ಕ್ರಿಯೆ ನಡೆಸಿದ ಸೂಚನೆ ಸ್ಪಷ್ಟವಾಗಿದೆ.

Question 50Kannada grammar and word structure

ಕೆಳಗಿನ ಪದಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಬಹುವಚನದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಪದ ಯಾವುದು?

  1. ಹುಡುಗಿ
  2. ಮಕ್ಕಳು Correct answer.
  3. ಮನೆ
  4. ನೀರು

Explanation

ಕನ್ನಡ ವ್ಯಾಕರಣದಲ್ಲಿ ವಚನವು ಏಕವಚನ ಮತ್ತು ಬಹುವಚನ ಎಂದು ಎರಡು ಬಗೆ. 'ಮಕ್ಕಳು' ಪದವು ಒಂದಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಮಕ್ಕಳನ್ನು ಸೂಚಿಸುವ ಬಹುವಚನ ರೂಪವಾಗಿದೆ. 'ಮನೆ', 'ಹುಡುಗಿ' ಮತ್ತು 'ನೀರು' ಈ ಸಂದರ್ಭದಲ್ಲಿ ಏಕವಚನದ ಅರ್ಥವನ್ನು ನೀಡುತ್ತವೆ.
