Which statement is correct? A. He is wiser than I. B. I with some friends went for a walk.
अचूक उत्तर: पर्याय (1) A is correct B is not
स्पष्टीकरण व व्याकरण नियम:
•
विधान A: "He is wiser than I."
•
बरोबर. प्रमाण इंग्रजी व्याकरणात 'than' नंतर जेव्हा दोन कर्त्यांची तुलना होते, तेव्हा प्रथमा विभक्तीतील सर्वनाम (Nominative case pronoun) वापरले जाते (कारण पुढे क्रियापद अध्याहृत असते: *than I [am]*). त्यामुळे 'He is wiser than I' हे पूर्णपणे शुद्ध विधान आहे.
•
विधान B: "I with some friends went for a walk."
•
चूक. इंग्रजीतील शिष्टाचाराच्या व वाक्यरचनेच्या नियमानुसार, प्रथमपुरुषी सर्वनाम 'I' हा इतर व्यक्तींसोबत जोडताना शेवटी वापरला जातो, किंवा 'with some friends' हा शब्दसमूह स्वल्पविरामाने वेगळा केला जातो (*Some friends and I went for a walk* किंवा *I, with some friends, went for a walk*). विरामचिन्हांशिवाय आणि अयोग्य रचनेमुळे हे विधान अशुद्ध ठरते.
•
म्हणून A is correct B is not हा अचूक पर्याय आहे.

English Explanation / स्पष्टीकरण:
Correct Answer: Option (1) A is correct B is not
Grammar Rules and Detailed Explanation:
•
Statement A: "He is wiser than I."
•
Correct. In formal prescriptive grammar, when comparing subjects using *than*, the pronoun following *than* takes the nominative case because an ellipsis of the verb is understood (*He is wiser than I [am]*).
•
Statement B: "I with some friends went for a walk."
•
Incorrect. Stylistically and syntactically defective without appropriate parenthetical commas, and it violates the natural English pronoun order rule (politeness rule: other persons precede the first person *I*, e.g., *Some friends and I went for a walk*).
•
Therefore, A is correct B is not.
Analysis of Options:
•
Option (1) A is correct B is not: Correct answer.
•
Option (2) B is correct A is not: Incorrect.
•
Option (3) Both A and B are correct: Incorrect.
•
Option (4) Neither A nor B is correct: Incorrect.
