Explanation: The Instrumental case in Armenian (գործիական հոլով) expresses the tool, means, or manner used to perform an action, such as «գրիչով գրել» (to write with a pen).
3Which suffix is used to form the Ablative case singular in Eastern Armenian for standard nouns (e.g. «դպրոց» -> 'from school')?
A.-ից
B.-ով
C.-ում
D.-ին
Explanation: In Eastern Armenian, the Ablative case (բացառական հոլով) singular suffix is «-ից» (-its), turning «դպրոց» into «դպրոցից» (from school).
4What is the first-person singular Present Subjunctive form of the verb «գրել» (to write)?
A.գրեմ
B.գրում եմ
C.գրեցի
D.պիտի գրեմ
Explanation: The Subjunctive Present (ըղձական եղանակ) of E-conjugation verbs like «գրել» drops the infinitive suffix «-ել» and adds «-եմ», yielding «գրեմ» (that I write / let me write).

A.կերավ
B.ուտում էր
C.ուտելու է
D.կուտե
Explanation: The verb «ուտել» undergoes root suppletion in the Aorist tense (անցյալ կատարյալ), taking the root «կեր-», thus the third-person singular form is «կերավ» (he/she ate).

Why is Armenian punctuation unique in VCE Armenian writing?

Armenian uses distinct punctuation marks written directly above stressed vowels within words, such as the question mark (paruyk ՞), emphasis mark (shesht ՛), and exclamation mark (batsaganchakan nshan ՜), as well as the bout (՝) for pause or clause separation.
