Select the most appropriate verb to fill in the blank.
Can you ____ me where he lives?

Correct option is D

The correct option to fill in the blank is (d) tell.
Explanation: The correct phrase is “tell me where he lives.” The verb “tell” is followed by an object (me, him, her) and a clause giving information. (Hindi meaning: बताना)
Example: Can you tell me how to reach the museum?
Why other options are incorrect:
· Suggest: Means to propose an idea (सुझाव देना) – not followed by an object + clause directly.
· Write: Means to communicate in written form (लिखना) – incorrect in context.
· Ask: Means to make a request or seek information (पूछना) – here, “ask me where he lives” means something else (request for a question).
Information Booster:
In English grammar, “tell” takes a person as an object, while “say” does not.
Example: Tell me the truth. (correct) / Say me the truth. (incorrect)
