Translation: Hindi to English MCQ - Practice Questions with Answers

The Hindi sentence, rendered in Roman form in the stem, asks who has insulted him. The active English question “Who has insulted him?” preserves the subject, tense and meaning. “What has he been insulted by?” changes the question word and makes the object unnatural. “He is insulted by whom?” is awkward and changes the tense. “Has he been insulted?” turns the sentence into a yes-or-no question, so it does not translate the original interrogative meaning.

The sentence means that the speaker's father purchased a pair of shoes for the speaker yesterday. 'My father bought me a pair of shoes yesterday' gives the correct verb, indirect object, number, and time reference. 'Got a pair of shoes for me' is close in sense but less precise for 'kharide', which means bought. 'Brought me' means carried or fetched, not necessarily purchased. 'Bring for me a pair of shoe' is grammatically wrong in tense and number.

The Hindi idiom "taaza hawa khana" means going out to get some fresh air, not literally eating or gulping air. "He came outside for a breath of fresh air" gives the intended sense naturally and idiomatically. "He came out to eat a little fresh air" translates the words too literally. "He gulped some fresh air outside" distorts the action. "Fresh air can be had only outside" turns the sentence into a general statement, while the original describes one person's action.

The sentence asks a direct question in the active voice: Rudra is the doer, the book is the object, and the action is tearing. In English, a past-tense question with a main verb takes did plus the base verb, so Why did Rudra tear the book? is grammatically correct. Why the book was torn by Rudra? has faulty question word order and shifts towards passive sense. The book was torn by Rudra why? is unnatural. Why tear the book, Rudra? is an imperative-style question, not a past-tense translation of the given sentence.

The Hindi sentence is an interrogative sentence asking for the reason: why is she crying or weeping? In standard English question form, the question word comes first, followed by the auxiliary verb, the subject, and then the main verb. Therefore, "Why is she weeping?" is grammatically correct. "Why she is weeping?" keeps statement word order. "She why is weeping?" breaks normal English syntax. "She is weeping why?" is not acceptable as the standard translation in an exam setting.
