1What is the standard word order in a basic Nepali declarative sentence?

A.Subject - Object - Verb (SOV)

B.Subject - Verb - Object (SVO)

C.Verb - Subject - Object (VSO)

D.Object - Subject - Verb (OSV)

Explanation: Nepali is canonically a Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) language. For example, 'Ramle bhat khanchha' (Ram eats rice), where 'Ramle' is the Subject, 'bhat' is the Object, and 'khanchha' is the Verb at the end.

2In standard Nepali grammar, where do descriptive adjectives typically sit relative to the noun they modify?

A.Immediately after the noun

B.Immediately before the noun

C.At the very end of the clause after the main verb

D.Adjectives can only appear as independent predicates

Explanation: In Nepali syntax, adjectives precede the noun they modify (e.g., 'ramro keti' = good girl, 'seto dhunga' = white stone).

3Where are temporal adverbs (such as 'hijo' [yesterday] or 'aaja' [today]) generally positioned in a Nepali sentence?

A.Between the direct object and the verb

B.Attached as a suffix to the main verb stem

C.At the start of the sentence or immediately following the subject

D.After the verb at the sentence boundary

Explanation: Temporal adverbs usually appear near the beginning of the sentence before or right after the subject (e.g., 'Aaja ma schoole janchhu' or 'Ma aaja schoole janchhu').

4When a sentence contains both an indirect object and a direct object in Nepali, what is the default constituent order?

A.Subject - Direct Object - Indirect Object - Verb

B.Indirect Object - Subject - Verb - Direct Object

C.Direct Object - Subject - Verb - Indirect Object

D.Subject - Indirect Object - Direct Object - Verb

Explanation: In standard double-object constructions in Nepali, the indirect object (usually marked with 'laai') precedes the direct object (e.g., 'Sita-le Hari-laai kitaab di-in' = Sita gave Hari a book).

5In a Nepali wh-question (interrogative), where is the question word (e.g., 'kahaa' [where], 'ke' [what]) typically placed?

A.Immediately preceding the verb (in-situ before the verb)

B.Always fronted to the absolute first position of the sentence

C.Placed after the verb at the end of the question

D.Attached to the subject pronoun as a prefix

Explanation: Nepali is an in-situ wh-language; interrogative words naturally sit in the position immediately preceding the verb (e.g., 'Tapaai kahaa jaanuhunchha?' = Where are you going?).

6How is simple verbal negation (e.g., 'not') structurally expressed in Nepali verb morphology?

A.By placing an independent particle 'no' after the sentence

B.By inserting a negative infix/prefix ('na-' or '-n-') directly into the verb conjugation

C.By placing the auxiliary word 'hoina' before the subject noun

D.By replacing all nouns in the sentence with negative pronouns

Explanation: Negation in Nepali is morphological: the negative element ('na-' prefix or '-n-' infix/suffix) combines directly with the verb root (e.g., 'janchha' -> 'jandaina', 'gara' -> 'nagara').

7Which conjunction is correctly used to join two clauses showing contrast ('but') in a complex Nepali sentence?

A.ani

B.ra

C.tara

D.bhaney

Explanation: 'Tara' is the adversative conjunction in Nepali equivalent to 'but' (e.g., 'Maile mehenat garein, tara safal bhainan' = I worked hard, but did not succeed).

8In a conditional complex sentence in Nepali using 'bhaney' (if), where is 'bhaney' situated?

A.At the very start of the independent main clause

B.Between the subject and direct object of the main clause

C.After the final verb of the main consequence clause

D.At the end of the subordinate conditional clause

Explanation: In Nepali conditional sentences, 'bhaney' sits at the end of the dependent/if-clause (e.g., 'Paani paryo bhaney, ma gharai baschhu' = If it rains, I will stay home).

9Analyze the sentence structure: 'Ghar aipugera maile khana khaaye.' What syntactic construction is used in 'aipugera'?

A.A conjunctive participle ('-era') linking sequential actions

B.A finite future tense main verb

C.An infinitive of purpose ending in '-na'

D.A passive voice nominalized adjective

Explanation: The suffix '-era' forms the conjunctive participle in Nepali, meaning 'having done X' (e.g., 'Ghar aipugera' = Having arrived home / After arriving home, I ate food).

10Which pair of correlative pronouns is used to construct relative clauses in Nepali (equivalent to 'the person who ... that person')?

A.kasto ... testo

B.jo ... tyo

C.yadi ... bhane

D.jati ... uti

Explanation: 'Jo ... tyo' is the relative-correlative pronoun pair in Nepali for persons/things ('Jo mehenat garchha, tyo safal hunchha' = He who works hard succeeds).
