SSC CHSL Similar 13 Nov S2 Set 2 – Q009

Question:

Choose the most suitable option to replace the highlighted part of the sentence:
She didn’t call to no one after the meeting.

वाक्य के रेखांकित भाग को प्रतिस्थापित करने के लिए सबसे उपयुक्त विकल्प चुनिए:
She didn’t call to no one after the meeting.

Options:

  • anyone
  • no one
  • somebody
  • nobody
  • anyone
  • no one
  • somebody
  • nobody

Correct Answer: a)

Explanation:

The sentence already contains the negative contraction ‘didn’t’. Using ‘no one’ creates an incorrect double negative. In negative sentences, ‘anyone’ should be used: ‘She didn’t call anyone’.

नकारात्मक वाक्य (‘didn’t’) में ‘no one’ का प्रयोग दोहरा नकारात्मक (double negative) दोष उत्पन्न करता है। अतः यहाँ ‘anyone’ का प्रयोग सही है।
