Q1Which option correctly classifies all three words by source: अग्नि, आग, किताब?

A अग्नि - tatsam; आग - foreign; किताब - tadbhav
B अग्नि - tatsam; आग - tadbhav; किताब - foreign
C अग्नि - tadbhav; आग - tatsam; किताब - foreign
D अग्नि - foreign; आग - tadbhav; किताब - tatsam
Explanation

In source-based classification, a tatsam word is taken from Sanskrit in essentially the same form, while a tadbhav word is the changed popular form derived from Sanskrit. Thus अग्नि is tatsam and आग is tadbhav. किताब is a borrowed word in Hindi usage, so it belongs to the foreign category.

A ग, ज, ड, द, ब

Each of the five वर्गीय consonant groups contains five consonants. The fifth consonant in each group is nasal: ङ in क-वर्ग, ञ in च-वर्ग, ण in ट-वर्ग, न in त-वर्ग, and म in प-वर्ग. This makes ङ, ञ, ण, न, म the complete nasal row.
