Question

Select the most appropriate homophone of the given word.
Ate

A.

Egg

B.

Hate

C.

Eight

D.

Weight

Correct option is C

The correct homophone of the given word is (c) Eight.
Homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings.
· Ate: Past tense of eat, meaning consumed food. (Hindi meaning: खाया)
· Eight: A number, 8. (Hindi meaning: आठ)
Example:
· He ate a sandwich.
· I have eight pencils in my pouch.
Meanings of other options:
· (a) Egg – A round object laid by a bird. (अंडा)
· (b) Hate – To strongly dislike. (नफरत करना)
· (d) Weight – Measure of how heavy something is. (वज़न)
None of the other options sound like ate, so only eight is the correct homophone.
