Which of the following sentences is correctly formed?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Look, here he comes with the samosas at last.
“Here” at the start with a pronoun subject:
- When “Here” starts a sentence and the subject is a noun, the verb comes before the subject: “Here comes the bus”.
- When the subject is a pronoun such as “he”, it comes before the verb: here he comes.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 1: Look, here comes he with the samosas at last. — Incorrect. The pronoun “he” comes after the verb “comes”. After “here”, a pronoun subject comes before the verb.
Option 3: Look, here does he come with the samosas at last. — Incorrect. This pattern does not take the helping verb “does”. The order is “here + he + comes”.
Option 4: Look, he here comes with the samosas at last. — Incorrect. “Here” must come first in this part of the sentence, before the subject “he”.
