The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
(A) She is knowing / (B) all the rules / (C) of this game / (D) very well.
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (A) She is knowing
Concept (Stative Verb: Know)
'Know' एक Stative Verb है, जो क्रिया नहीं बल्कि अवस्था (state) बताता है। Stative Verbs (know, believe, understand, like आदि) का Continuous Tense (अपूर्ण काल) में प्रयोग नहीं होता।
अतः 'is knowing' के स्थान पर Simple Present 'knows' आएगा।
शुद्ध वाक्य: She knows all the rules of this game very well.
Exam trap: 'is knowing' को सामान्य Continuous मान लेना; 'know' Stative Verb है।
Concept (Stative Verb: Know)
'Know' is a stative verb. It describes a state, not an action, so it is not used in the continuous tenses.
So 'is knowing' should be the Simple Present 'knows'.
Correct sentence: She knows all the rules of this game very well.
Exam trap: treating 'is knowing' as an ordinary Continuous form; 'know' is a stative verb.
