Hard

In the following sentences, the first and last parts are given as 1 and 6. The middle four parts (य), (र), (ल), (व) are out of order. Arrange the four parts in the correct sequence and choose the correct option: 1) Everyone knows that Hindi (य) will prove to be, English co-official language position (र) sooner or later the sole official language of India (ल) will be removed from, so in that situation (व) to adapt oneself to (6) we are studying Hindi.

Appeared in: DSSSB 14 August 2024

Explanation

  • The objective is to arrange the jumbled parts to form a single, grammatically correct, and logically coherent sentence.
  • The sequence begins with part (र) 'sooner or later the sole official language of India', which logically follows the opening phrase 'Everyone knows that Hindi...'.
  • Part (य) 'will prove to be...' completes the first clause initiated by (र) and introduces the subsequent point about English's status.
  • Part (ल) 'will be removed from...' describes the consequence for the English language's position, creating a clear cause-and-effect flow.
  • Part (व) 'to adapt oneself to' explains the reason for the action described in the final part (6) of the sentence.
  • Following the R-Y-L-V sequence creates a complete and meaningful sentence that connects the fixed start (1) and end (6) parts.

Why Other Options Were Wrong

  • Option A: The sequence (रलवय) is incorrect. While (र) is the correct start, placing (ल) 'will be removed from' immediately after it creates a grammatical error. The clause '...the sole official language of India will be removed from...' is illogical. The verb 'will prove to be' (सिद्ध होगी) from part (य) is required first.
  • Option B: The sequence (लरवय) is incorrect. Starting with (ल) 'will be removed from' after 'Everyone knows that Hindi...' is nonsensical. It creates an incomplete and illogical thought: 'Hindi will be removed from'.
  • Option D: The sequence (लयरव) is incorrect for the same reason as the previous one. Starting with (ल) 'will be removed from' creates a sentence fragment that does not logically connect with the opening part.

Clinical Relevance
  • Nursing practice connection: This is primarily an exam-oriented knowledge point with limited direct bedside application, so retain Sentence Jumbling (Para Jumbles) in Hindi as background academic context rather than a clinical decision trigger.
  • This is a language and reasoning question, not a clinical one. Such questions are included in nursing exams to assess general aptitude and comprehension skills.
  • Strong language comprehension is a critical skill for nurses. It is essential for accurately reading and understanding doctor's orders, patient charts, and medical literature.
  • Clear communication, which stems from good language skills, is vital for patient education, inter-professional collaboration, and preventing medical errors.
How to Approach the Question
  • First, read the fixed opening (1) and closing (6) parts to understand the overall theme and context of the sentence.
  • Analyze the opening part 'Everyone knows that Hindi...' and look for the most logical continuation among the jumbled options. Part (र) '...sooner or later the sole official language of India' is the most natural fit.
  • Identify logical pairs. For instance, the phrase in (र) '...sole official language of India' needs a verb, which is supplied by (य) 'will prove to be' (राजभाषा सिद्ध होगी). This forms a strong र-य link.
  • Look for transition words. The word 'तो' (so/then) in part (ल) signals a result or consequence, linking it to the preceding statement about Hindi's and English's status.
  • Assemble the identified links into a complete sequence (र-य-ल-व) and read the full sentence to ensure it flows smoothly and makes logical sense from start to finish.
  • Use the process of elimination. Options starting with (ल) are immediately incorrect, narrowing down the possibilities.
