1What is the correct Sandhi split (সন্ধি ভাঙা) for the Assamese word 'বিদ্যালায়' (Vidyalaya)?
A.বিদ্যা + আলয় (Vidya + Alaya)
B.বিদ + আলয় (Vid + Alaya)
C.বিদ্যা + লয় (Vidya + Laya)
D.বিদ্য + আলয় (Vidya + Alaya)
Explanation: In Swara Sandhi (স্বৰ সন্ধি), when the vowel 'আ' (a) at the end of 'বিদ্যা' combines with the initial vowel 'আ' (a) of 'আলয়', they join to form a single long vowel 'আ', resulting in 'বিদ্যালয়'.
2Which type of Sandhi occurs when a vowel sound combines with another vowel sound, as seen in 'সূৰ্যোদয়' (Suryodaya = সূৰ্য + উদয়)?
A.Swara Sandhi (স্বৰ সন্ধি)
B.Vyanjana Sandhi (ব্যঞ্জন সন্ধি)
C.Visarga Sandhi (বিসৰ্গ সন্ধি)
D.Anunasika Sandhi (আনুনাসিক সন্ধি)
Explanation: Swara Sandhi (স্বৰ সন্ধি) is defined as the phonetic union of two adjacent vowel sounds. Here, 'অ' at the end of 'সূৰ্য' combines with 'উ' at the start of 'উদয়' to yield 'ও' (o).
3Combine the words 'দেৱ' (Deva) and 'ইন্দ্ৰ' (Indra) according to standard Assamese Swara Sandhi rules.
A.দেৱেন্দ্ৰ (Devendra)
B.দেৱীন্দ্ৰ (Devindra)
C.দেৱোইন্দ্ৰ (Devoindra)
D.দেৱেন্দ্ৰী (Devendri)
Explanation: When short vowel 'অ' at the end of 'দেৱ' combines with short vowel 'ই' of 'ইন্দ্ৰ', the rule অ + ই = এ applies, forming 'দেৱেন্দ্ৰ' (Devendra).
4What is the Sandhi split of the word 'উচ্ছেদ' (Uchchheda)?
A.উৎ + ছেদ (Ut + Chheda)
B.উ + ছেদ (U + Chheda)
C.উচ + ছেদ (Uch + Chheda)
D.উত্ত + ছেদ (Utta + Chheda)
Explanation: In Vyanjana Sandhi (ব্যঞ্জন সন্ধি), when the consonant 'ৎ' (t) is followed by 'ছ' (chh), the 'ৎ' assimilates into 'চ্', producing the double consonant 'চ্ছ', giving 'উৎ + ছেদ = উচ্ছেদ'.
5Identify the word that represents an example of Visarga Sandhi (বিসৰ্গ সন্ধি).
A.নিৰ্ধন (Nirdhana = নিঃ + ধন)
B.মহালয় (Mahalaya = মহা + আলয়)
C.সজ্জন (Sajjana = সৎ + জন)
D.বিদ্যালয় (Vidyalaya = বিদ্যা + আলয়)
Explanation: 'নিৰ্ধন' (Nirdhana) is formed by 'নিঃ' (Niḥ) + 'ধন' (Dhana). The visarga (ঃ) converts into 'ৰ্' (r-karaf) before a voiced consonant, making it Visarga Sandhi.
6What is the Vigraha Vakya (বিগ্ৰহ বাক্য) and classification for the compound word 'ৰাজপুত্ৰ' (Rajaputra)?
A.ৰজাৰ পুত্ৰ = ষষ্ঠী তৎপুৰুষ সমাস (Sasthi Tatpurusha Samas)
B.ৰজা আৰু পুত্ৰ = দ্বন্দ্ব সমাস (Dvandva Samas)
C.ৰজা যি পুত্ৰ = কৰ্মধাৰয় সমাস (Karmadharaya Samas)
D.ৰজাত পুত্ৰ = পঞ্চমী তৎপুৰুষ সমাস (Panchami Tatpurusha Samas)
Explanation: 'ৰাজপুত্ৰ' expands to 'ৰজাৰ পুত্ৰ' (king's son). Since the possessive genitive case marker '-ৰ' (Sasthi Vibhakti) is omitted in the compound, it is classified as Sasthi Tatpurusha Samas.
7Which Samas (সমাস) features two mutually independent nouns joined together where both terms retain equal importance?
A.Dvandva Samas (দ্বন্দ্ব সমাস)
B.Bahuvrihi Samas (বহুব্ৰীহি সমাস)
C.Dvigu Samas (দ্বিগু সমাস)
D.Avyayibhava Samas (অব্যয়ীভাৱ সমাস)
Explanation: In Dvandva Samas (দ্বন্দ্ব সমাস), both the former (পূর্বপদ) and latter (উত্তরপদ) terms hold equal semantic weight and are joined in expansion by 'আৰু' (and), such as 'মা-দেউতা' (মা আৰু দেউতা).
8Classify the compound word 'ত্ৰিফলা' (Triphala = তিনিটা ফলৰ সমাহাৰ).
A.Dvigu Samas (দ্বিগু সমাস)
B.Bahuvrihi Samas (বহুব্ৰীহি সমাস)
C.Dvandva Samas (দ্বন্দ্ব সমাস)
D.Tatpurusha Samas (তৎপুৰুষ সমাস)
Explanation: When the initial term is a numeral ('ত্ৰি' meaning three) and the compound signifies a collection or aggregate (সমাহাৰ), it is classified as Dvigu Samas.
9What type of Samas is 'নীলকণ্ঠ' (Nilakantha), expanded as 'নীল কণ্ঠ যাৰ' (referring to Lord Shiva)?
A.Bahuvrihi Samas (বহুব্ৰীহি সমাস)
B.Karmadharaya Samas (কৰ্মধাৰয় সমাস)
C.Tatpurusha Samas (তৎপুৰুষ সমাস)
D.Dvigu Samas (দ্বিগু সমাস)
Explanation: In Bahuvrihi Samas (বহুব্ৰীহি সমাস), neither constituent word retains primary importance; instead, the compound refers to an external third entity (in this case, Shiva, who has a blue throat).
10In the sentence 'ৰামে ৰাৱণক বাণেৰে বধ কৰিলে' (Ram killed Ravana with an arrow), which Kark (কাৰক) is represented by 'বাণেৰে' (banere)?
A.Karana Kark (কৰণ কাৰক - Instrumental Case)
B.Karta Kark (কর্তা কাৰক - Nominative Case)
C.Karma Kark (কর্ম কাৰক - Accusative Case)
D.Apadana Kark (অপাদান কাৰক - Ablative Case)
Explanation: The instrument or means by which an action is performed is Karana Kark (কৰণ কাৰক). The suffix '-ৰে' (re) denotes the instrumental case ('with/by an arrow').
