01SSC Hindi (Second Language): What the Prescribed Content Covers
This section maps the whole Class 10 Hindi (Second Language) syllabus: unseen passages, the prescribed prose and poetry lessons, the grammar items, and the writing tasks. The paper does not test these in isolation - a comprehension answer can lose marks for a grammar slip, and a निबंध loses marks for wrong vocabulary - so treat the four strands as one skill set built on the same prescribed textbook.
328 words, about 2 min02Reading Comprehension and Textual Study of Prescribed Lessons
This domain tests whether you can read an unseen गद्यांश or पद्यांश and answer precisely, and whether you actually know the prescribed prose and poetry - plot, character, भाव and संदेश. Questions are short-answer: 'क्या', 'क्यों', 'कैसे', 'शीर्षक', 'संदेश' and 'शब्दार्थ'.
341 words, about 2 min03व्याकरण: Sandhi, Samas, Alankar, Kaal and Vachya
The grammar domain carries the most predictable marks on the paper. Items recur in the same shapes each year: संधि-विच्छेद and संधि-नाम, समास-विग्रह and समास-नाम, अलंकार-पहचान, काल-परिवर्तन, वाच्य-परिवर्तन and कारक-चिह्न.
319 words, about 2 min04Composition: पत्र, निबंध and अनुच्छेद
This domain tests controlled writing in a fixed format. Three tasks dominate: the formal or informal पत्र, the निबंध, and the अनुच्छेद.
340 words, about 2 min05Vocabulary, मुहावरे, लोकोक्तियाँ and Applied Usage
This domain tests word knowledge in use: पर्यायवाची, विलोम, अनेकार्थी, तत्सम-तद्भव, मुहावरे and लोकोक्तियाँ. The exam rarely asks for a definition - it asks you to supply the word or to use the मुहावरा correctly inside a sentence, so context decides the mark.
