    Question

    Choose the correct alternative to replace the bold part to make the sentence grammatically correct.
    In winter people do not took a bath.

    A.

    do not take

    B.

    did not taken

    C.

    not taken

    D.

    No improvement

    Correct option is A


    ✔️ The correct substitution is (a) do not take.
    Explanation:
    The subject “people” is plural, so the verb used must be “do not” followed by base form “take”. “Took” is the past tense, and the sentence is in the present.
    Grammatical Rule Used:
    · In present simple negative, we use: Subject + do/does not + base verb (V1).
    Explanation of the Rule in Hindi:
    ✔️ जब Present Simple में नकारात्मक वाक्य बनाना होता है, तो “do/does not + V1” का प्रयोग करते हैं।
    उदाहरण:
    · People do not take a bath.
    · वह स्नान नहीं करता। → He does not take a bath.
    Meanings of Other Options:
    · ❌ (b) Did not taken – Wrong combination; past auxiliary with past participle is incorrect.
    · Hindi: “Did” के साथ V3 का प्रयोग नहीं होता।
    · ❌ (c) Not taken – Lacks subject and helping verb.
    · Hindi: यह एक पूर्ण वाक्य नहीं है।
    · ❌ (d) No improvement – Original tense and verb form are incorrect.
    · Hindi: “do not took” व्याकरण की दृष्टि से गलत है।
