I, you and she / have been working happily / in the same company and in the same branch / for the last nine years.
आपने शायद यह सोचाWhat you probably thought'have been working happily' संदिग्ध लगा। परंतु यह शुद्ध है।'have been working happily' may look wrong with 'happily' in the middle. But it is acceptable; the error is the pronoun order in 'I, you and she'.
आपने शायद यह सोचाWhat you probably thought'in the same company and in the same branch' संदिग्ध लगा। परंतु यह सही है।'in the same company and in the same branch' may look wrong as 'in the same' repeats. But repetition here is acceptable.
आपने शायद यह सोचाWhat you probably thought'for the last nine years.' संदिग्ध लगा। परंतु यह शुद्ध है।'for the last nine years.' may look wrong without 'since'. But 'for' with a period of time is right with the perfect continuous.
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (A) I, you and she
I, you and she — यह तीन व्यक्तियों का एक सुखद कथन है, जिसमें अच्छी ख़बर बताई जा रही है।
Concept: अच्छी ख़बर देते समय शिष्टाचार का क्रम 2 – 3 – 1 होता है, इसलिए वाक्य You, she and I से शुरू होगा।
✓
You, she and I have been working happily in the same company and in the same branch for the last nine years.
have been working ... for the last nine years सही है, क्योंकि जब समय-अवधि के साथ for आता है, तब perfect continuous (पूर्ण अपूर्ण) का प्रयोग होता है।
सरल अर्थ: तुम, वह और मैं पिछले नौ साल से एक ही कंपनी और एक ही शाखा में ख़ुशी-ख़ुशी काम कर रहे हैं।
I, you and she is a pleasant statement with three persons.
Concept: the courtesy order for good news is 2 – 3 – 1: You, she and I.
✓
You, she and I have been working happily in the same company and in the same branch for the last nine years.
have been working ... for the last nine years is correct: for with a period takes the perfect continuous.
