verified योग्य उत्तर: पर्याय (3) - सविस्तर स्पष्टीकरण

योग्य उत्तर: पर्याय ३ (Not only did they share their clothes but also their toys.)

स्पष्टीकरण:

१. Inversion Rule with 'Not only': जेव्हा वाक्याची सुरुवात 'Not only' ने केली जाते, तेव्हा इंग्रजी व्याकरणात Inversion (Subject-Verb Inversion) चा नियम लागू होतो: *Not only + Auxiliary Verb + Subject + Main Verb*.
२. मूळ वाक्य भूतकाळात आहे ('shared' - V2), म्हणून सहाय्यकारी क्रियापद 'did' वापरून क्रियापदाचे मूळ रूप 'share' (V1) येईल: *Not only did they share...*
३. त्यानंतर दुसऱ्या घटकापूर्वी 'but also' येईल: *...but also their toys.*
४. म्हणून पर्याय ३ हा व्याकरणदृष्ट्या १००% अचूक आहे.

वाक्याची सुरुवात Not only / Hardly / Scarcely / Seldom / Never ने झाल्यास हमखास Inversion (Auxiliary + Subject + Verb) होते. उदा. *Not only did he come, but he also helped.*

translate English Explanation / स्पष्टीकरण:

Correct Answer: Option 3 (Not only did they share their clothes but also their toys.)

Explanation:

1. Inversion Rule: When a sentence begins with negative or restrictive correlatives like 'Not only', subject-auxiliary inversion is mandatory: *Not only + Auxiliary + Subject + Base Verb*.
2. Since 'shared' is in the Simple Past Tense, the auxiliary 'did' is brought before the subject 'they', followed by the base form 'share': *"Not only did they share..."*
3. The correlative pair is completed with *"but also their toys"*.
4. Options 1 and 2 lack auxiliary inversion; option 4 uses an incorrect verb form ('had they share').
💡 MPSC EXAM TIP High-Yield Exam Strategy Tip

Whenever 'Not only' begins a sentence, invert the auxiliary verb and subject: `Not only + did/do/does + Subject + Verb`.
