    Question

    Select the most appropriate option to substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence. If there is no need to substitute it, select ‘No substitution’.
    He replied mine letter after a month.

    A.

    replied to mine letter

    B.

    replied to my letter

    C.

    No substitution

    D.

    reply my letter

    Correct option is B

    The correct substitution for the highlighted segment in the sentence "He replied mine letter after a month" is (b) "replied to my letter."

    • Explanation: The original segment uses "mine letter," which is incorrect. "Mine" is a possessive pronoun used incorrectly in this context. The correct possessive adjective before a noun is "my." Additionally, the preposition "to" is necessary after "replied" to indicate the action was directed toward the letter.
    • Corrected Sentence: "He replied to my letter after a month."
