Correct option is A


The incorrect segment is (a) to do same.
· The phrase "to do same" is incorrect because "same" needs a determiner before it.
· The correct phrase should be "to do the same."
Correct Sentence: "People who have overcome personal challenges can inspire others to do the same."
Grammatical Rule Used:
· "Same" is a demonstrative pronoun that usually requires "the" before it when referring back to something previously mentioned.
· Example:
· Incorrect: She bought a dress, and I bought same.
· Correct: She bought a dress, and I bought the same.
व्याकरण संबंधी नियम (Grammatical Rule in Hindi):
· "Same" एक प्रदर्शक सर्वनाम (Demonstrative Pronoun) है, जो पहले संदर्भित किसी चीज़ की पुनरावृत्ति करता है।
· इसके पहले "the" लगाना आवश्यक होता है, क्योंकि यह किसी निश्चित चीज़ की ओर इशारा करता है।
उदाहरण:
❌ गलत: वह एक नई किताब लाया और मैंने भी same खरीदी।
✔️ सही: वह एक नई किताब लाया और मैंने भी the same खरीदी।
