A
The boar raised his head, sniffing the air, while the sow quietly watched him from afar.
B
The witch brewed a magical potion in her hidden cottage.
C
The filly nuzzled his mother affectionately in the stable.
D
The wizard used his wand to turn the stone into gold.
সঠিক উত্তর:
গ) The filly nuzzled his mother affectionately in the stable. → সঠিক হওয়া উচিত: …nuzzled her mother…
বিষয়টি বোঝার নিয়ম:
Filly = female young horse (বাচ্চা ঘোটকী)
Female animal এর জন্য her ব্যবহার করতে হবে, his নয়।
Colt = male young horse (বাচ্চা ঘোড়া), masculine।
বাকি বাক্যগুলো সঠিক কারণ:
ক) The boar raised his head, sniffing the air, while the sow quietly watched him from afar.
Boar = male wild pig, Sow = female adult pig, pronouns মিলেছে।
খ) The witch brewed a magical potion in her hidden cottage.
Witch = female, তাই her সঠিক।
ঘ) The wizard used his wand to turn the stone into gold.
Wizard = male, তাই his সঠিক।

A
A few of the three boys got a prize.
B
Each of the three boys got a prize.
C
Every of the three boys got a prize.
D
All of the three boys got a prize.
Correct sentence: Each of the three boys got a prize.
• কোনো বাক্যে Each of the, one of the, neither of the, either of the থাকলে এদের পর noun (plural) কিন্তু verb (singular) এবং possessive (singular) হয়।
- a prize এর সাথে সঙ্গতি রেখে a few of / all of এর ব্যবহার অশুদ্ধ।
- Every of এর ব্যবহার অশুদ্ধ।
ক) A few of the three boys got a prize
- বাক্যটি ভুল।
- "A few" suggests a small number out of a larger group.
- যেহেতু এখানে only three boys উল্লেখ আছে তাই এই phrase টি এখানে appropriate নয়।
খ) Each of the three boys got a prize
- বাক্যটি সঠিক।
- "Each" correctly implies that every single one of the three boys received a prize individually.
- তাই বাক্যটি ব্যাকরণগত ভাবে সঠিক।
গ) Every of the three boys got a prize
- বাক্যটি ভুল।
- যদি বাক্যটি হতো "Every one of the three boys got a prize," তবে এটি সঠিক হতো।
ঘ) All of the three boys got a prize
- বাক্যটি ভুল।
- সঠিক বাক্যটি হতো "All three boys got a prize", "All of the three boys" is somewhat redundant and less natural.
Therefore, the best and most grammatically correct option is খ) Each of the three boys got a prize.
