    Question

    Identify the sentence with correct punctuation:

    A.

    I love eating cake.

    B.

    I love eating, cake.

    C.

    I love, eating cake.

    D.

    I love, eating, cake.

    Correct option is A


    Option (a) “I love eating cake.” is the sentence with correct punctuation.
    Explanation:
    The sentence is a simple declarative statement expressing a complete thought. It correctly uses no unnecessary commas and ends with a full stop. The structure follows Subject + Verb + Object, and the words are naturally connected — no interruption that requires commas.
    Punctuation Rule (English):
    Commas are used to indicate pauses or separate elements. They should not be inserted randomly between subject, verb, and object unless a pause or list is required.
    Punctuation Rule (Hindi):
    कॉमा (,) का प्रयोग वहां किया जाता है जहां वाक्य में रुकावट या सूची (list) हो। लेकिन सरल वाक्य जिसमें सीधा कथन हो, उसमें अतिरिक्त कॉमा नहीं लगाई जाती।
    Why other options are incorrect:
    · (b) I love eating, cake. – Incorrect comma after "eating" separates verb and object unnecessarily.
    · (c) I love, eating cake. – Unnecessary comma after subject "love".
    · (d) I love, eating, cake. – Excessive punctuation breaking natural flow.
