    Question

    Select the sentence with the correct use of preposition. If there is no error, select ‘No error’.

    A.

    She closely resembles in her aunt in physical features.

    B.

    She closely resembles her aunt in physical features.

    C.

    She closely resembles to her aunt in physical features.

    D.

    No error

    Correct option is B


    Option (b) is the sentence with the correct use of preposition.
    Explanation: The verb “resemble” is a transitive verb and does not require any preposition. Therefore, “resembles her aunt” is the correct usage.
    Grammatical rule used: Certain verbs like “resemble,” “discuss,” “approach,” etc., take a direct object without a preposition.
    Explanation of the grammatical rule in Hindi: कुछ क्रियाएं (जैसे resemble, discuss, approach) बिना preposition के सीधे object लेती हैं।
    Example: He resembles his father in voice and manner.
    Meanings of incorrect options:
    • Resemble in: Incorrect usage; “in” is unnecessary.
    Hindi meaning: गलत प्रयोग
    • Resemble to: Incorrect; “to” is not used with “resemble.”
    Hindi meaning: गलत प्रयोग
