| List-I | List-II | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| (A) Nikhil carried his grandmother’s heavy bag up the stairs. | (III) Transitive verb | “Carried” acts on “his grandmother’s heavy bag”, its object. A verb that takes an object is a transitive verb. |
| (B) The guests from Lucknow arrived late at night. | (I) Intransitive verb | “Arrived” has no object. “Late at night” only tells when. So it is an intransitive verb. |
| (C) The rotis that Mother packed stayed soft till lunch time. | (IV) Linking verb | “Stayed” joins “the rotis” to “soft”, a word that describes them. So it is a linking verb. |
| (D) My cousins have gone to Ooty for a week. | (II) Helping verb | “Have” comes before the main verb “gone” and helps it show the tense. So it is a helping verb. |
