Identify the part of speech of the highlighted word in the sentence given below.
The children are where you left them.

Correct option is B

Correct answer: (b) Verb
Explanation (highlight):
• Left shows an action (past form of “leave”).
• It is the main verb of the clause “you left them”.
• Therefore, its part of speech is Verb.
Example: You left your keys on the table.
Why other options are incorrect:
• (a) Noun → “left” here is not a thing/person.
• (c) Pronoun → pronouns replace nouns (he, she, they), “left” does not.
• (d) Adjective → adjectives describe nouns; “left” here performs an action.
Hence, option (b) is the correct answer.
