Question

Select the appropriate adjective in the following sentence.
I could not get _________ note book there.

A.

Some

B.

Any

C.

All

D.

None

Correct option is B

The correct adjective to use in the sentence is "Any".

The word "any" is used in negative sentences or questions to refer to an unspecified or unknown quantity. In this sentence, the presence of the negative word "not" requires the use of "any."

Corrected Sentence:
I could not get any notebook there.

Meanings of other options:

  • Some: (Hindi: कुछ) Used in affirmative sentences to indicate an unspecified amount; not suitable here due to the negative context.
  • Any: (Hindi: कोई) Used in negative or interrogative sentences to refer to an unspecified quantity.
  • All: (Hindi: सभी) Refers to the entirety of something; inappropriate here.
  • None: (Hindi: कोई नहीं) Refers to the absence of something; not suitable as it would change the sentence structure.
