Question

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank
She has been away from home ____________Sunday

A.

From

B.

Since

C.

For

D.

By

Correct option is B

The correct option to fill in the blank is (b) Since.

The preposition "since" is used to denote the starting point of a period of time in the past and continues to the present. In this sentence, "Sunday" is the starting point, and thus "since" is the appropriate word.

Grammatical rule used: When indicating the starting point of an action or event in time, "since" is used with specific time markers (e.g., days, dates, or specific moments).

Explanation in Hindi: जब वाक्य में किसी क्रिया या घटना की शुरुआत के समय को दर्शाना हो, तो "since" का उपयोग किया जाता है।

Example: She has been working here since January.

Meanings of other options:

  • From – (से) Used to denote the source or starting point but doesn't fit here because it usually requires a complete phrase, e.g., "from Sunday to Monday."
  • For – (के लिए) Used to indicate a duration of time, e.g., "for three days."
  • By – (तक) Used to indicate a deadline or point of completion, e.g., "by Sunday."
