Question

Fill in the blanks with the help of options that follow the sentence.
The witness will ______ what I have said.

A.

bear up

B.

bear out

C.

bear with

D.

bear on

Correct option is B


The correct option to fill in the blank is (b) bear out.
Explanation: The phrasal verb “bear out” means to confirm or support the truth of something. So, the sentence means — “The witness will confirm what I have said.”
Grammatical rule used: Phrasal verbs are fixed combinations of a verb and a preposition/adverb whose meaning differs from the literal sense of the words.
ग्रैमेटिकल नियम का हिंदी में स्पष्टीकरण: Phrasal verbs दो या अधिक शब्दों से बनते हैं (verb + preposition/adverb) और उनका अर्थ सामान्य शब्दों से भिन्न होता है। “Bear out” का अर्थ है “सत्यापित करना” या “समर्थन करना।”
Example:
· His statement bore out what I had already told the police.
Meanings of the other options: · (a) bear up: To remain strong in difficult situations. (हिम्मत बनाए रखना) · (c) bear with: To be patient with someone. (सहन करना, धैर्य रखना) · (d) bear on: To be relevant to something. (से संबंधित होना)
