Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding the grammatical aspects.
The question focuses on identifying correct grammatical moods and aspects based on examples in Khasi sentences.
Each sentence represents a different verb form showing time, completion, or command.
Step 2: Explanation of each form.
- (A) “Snegwebha ale hangne” — expresses a command or request. Hence, it represents the Imperative mood.
- (B) “Da u wan te sa ai aritat kato ka jainkup” — expresses possibility or condition, representing the Subjunctive mood.
- (C) “Ki la leh leit” — describes an action that has been completed; therefore, it falls under the Perfective aspect.
- (D) “Ki sla ki la nang ïaïap man ka sngi” — shows a continuing or ongoing action, hence representing the Imperfective aspect.
Step 3: Correct Matching.
A - III (Imperative mood)
B - IV (Subjunctive mood)
C - I (Perfective aspect)
D - II (Imperfective aspect)
Step 4: Conclusion.
The matching aligns with grammatical structure and meaning. Therefore, the correct combination is (1).
