Q1 · Sandhi & Samas
'देवालय' शब्द में कौन सी संधि है?
- A. गुण संधि
- B. दीर्घ संधि
- C. वृद्धि संधि
- D. यण संधि
Answer and solution
Answer: B
देवालय = देव + आलय. Here अ (from देव) + आ (from आलय) = आ, which is दीर्घ संधि (a/ā + a/ā = ā). Checking options: गुण requires अ+इ/उ, वृद्धि requires अ+ए/ऐ, यण requires इ/उ+vowel — none fit. Only दीर्घ संधि matches अ+आ=आ.
