1In Odia grammar (ବ୍ୟାକରଣ) for Odisha BSE HSC First Language Odia, what does ସନ୍ଧି (sandhi) primarily describe?
A.Counting syllables for a fixed poetic metre only
B.Classifying a word only as masculine or feminine gender
C.Translating an English sentence into Odia
D.Joining of two word-forms at the boundary so sounds combine or change
Explanation: Sandhi (ସନ୍ଧି) is the phonological joining of adjacent sounds when two forms meet, often changing vowels or consonants at the boundary. Class 10 Odia grammar tests both forming sandhi and sandhi-viccheda (splitting).
2Which major type of sandhi involves the combination of two vowels (ସ୍ୱର)?
A.ସମାସ ସନ୍ଧି (samasa sandhi — not a standard sandhi class)
B.ବିସର୍ଗ ସନ୍ଧି (bisarga sandhi)
C.ସ୍ୱର ସନ୍ଧି (swara sandhi)
D.ବ୍ୟଞ୍ଜନ ସନ୍ଧି (byanjan sandhi)
Explanation: Swara sandhi (ସ୍ୱର ସନ୍ଧି) covers vowel–vowel contact changes. School Odia grammar commonly groups external sandhi into swara, byanjan (consonant), and bisarga types.
3What is ବ୍ୟଞ୍ଜନ ସନ୍ଧି (byanjan / vyanjana sandhi)?
A.Only the joining of two identical long vowels
B.The rule for placing a full stop in Odia script
C.A type of poetic metaphor
D.Sandhi changes involving consonants (ବ୍ୟଞ୍ଜନ) at word boundaries
Explanation: Byanjan (vyanjana) sandhi covers consonant-involved combinations when forms meet. It is one of the three commonly taught sandhi classes alongside swara and bisarga sandhi.
4In Odia grammar, ସମାସ (samasa) primarily means:
A.Changing present tense to past tense only
B.Listing synonyms of a single word
C.Forming a compound word by combining two or more meaningful units into one expression
D.Marking stress on the last syllable of a verse
Explanation: Samasa (ସମାସ) is compound formation: two (or more) padas combine into a single compound with a unified meaning. Students identify samasa type and often expand (vigraha) the compound.
5Which Odia term names the grammatical ‘case role’ of a noun phrase toward the verb (agent, object, instrument, etc.)?
A.ଛନ୍ଦ (chhanda)
B.ଅଳଙ୍କାର (alankara)
C.ଉପମା (upama) only
D.କାରକ (karaka)
Explanation: Karaka (କାରକ) is the semantic-syntactic role a noun plays relative to the action (karta, karma, karana, and so on). Vibhakti endings often mark those roles.
6What does ବିଭକ୍ତି (vibhakti) refer to in Odia grammar?
A.Only the meaning of an entire essay paragraph
B.The title of a poetry anthology
C.A list of proverbs used in letters
D.Case endings/inflections that mark a noun’s grammatical relation
Explanation: Vibhakti (ବିଭକ୍ତି) are the case endings (prathama, dwitiya, etc.) that mark how a noun relates in the sentence. Karaka describes the role; vibhakti is the morphological marker often linked to it.
7In the karaka system, କର୍ତ୍ତା (karta) most nearly means the:
A.Instrument used to perform the action
B.Place where the action happens only
C.Doer / agent of the action
D.Object that receives the action only
Explanation: Karta (କର୍ତ୍ତା) is the agent/doer of the action. Other karakas (karma, karana, sampradana, apadana, adhikarana) cover object, instrument, recipient, source, and locus roles.
8କର୍ମ (karma) as a karaka typically names the:
A.Poetic metre of a padya line
B.Object or patient that the action primarily affects
C.Author’s pen-name only
D.Visarga sandhi rule only
Explanation: Karma (କର୍ମ) is the object/patient role—what the action is done to or primarily targets—distinct from karta (doer) and karana (instrument).
9Which term labels grammatical number (singular/plural) in Odia?
A.ବଚନ (bachana)
B.ଉପମା (upama)
C.ଛନ୍ଦ (chhanda)
D.ସନ୍ଧି (sandhi)
Explanation: Bachana (ବଚନ) is grammatical number—typically singular (ekabachana) and plural (bahubachana) agreement patterns tested in Class 10 Odia grammar.
10ଲିଙ୍ଗ (linga) in Odia grammar refers to:
A.Only the fee for the HSC examination
B.Grammatical gender classification of nouns (and related agreement)
C.Only the length of an unseen passage
D.Only the board’s office address
Explanation: Linga (ଲିଙ୍ଗ) is grammatical gender. Students track how nouns and related forms align; it is distinct from sandhi, samasa, and karaka.
