Fill in the blanks with the correct form (V1, V2, V3) of the verb given in the bracket.
Latha _______ (weep) bitterly on her father’s death.

Options:

Wept

Weep

Weeping

Cry

Correct Answer:

Wept

Explanation:

The correct form of the verb "weep" to fill in the blank is wept. The simple past tense of the verb "weep" is wept. The context of the sentence indicates that Latha is crying in the past, so the simple past tense is the most appropriate tense to use.

The other options are incorrect.

  • Weep is the infinitive form of the verb "weep".
  • Weeping is the present participle of the verb "weep".
  • Cry is a verb that means to shed tears, but it is not the most appropriate verb to use in this context.
