In simple words: Write the name of each body part and object shown in the picture. These are common Hindi words we use in our daily life.

Exam Tip: Pay attention to the chandrabindu (ँ) symbol placed above certain letters - it changes how the word sounds and is important for correct spelling.

Question 2. The poem "Mother" contains some beautiful words used to show love for family members. Use two rhyming words from the poem for each family member -
Given example: भोली-भोली, प्यारी-प्यारी, दिल से सच्ची, जग से न्यारी
Answer:
For family members, we can use pairs of words like:
भोली-भोली (innocent - innocent)
प्यारी-प्यारी (dear - dear)
दिल से सच्ची (truthful from heart)
जग से न्यारी (unique in the world)

These word pairs help show love and respect for our family members through poetry. When we repeat these words together, it creates a musical feeling and makes the meaning stronger.

In simple words: Choose two words that rhyme and go together well to describe each family member. These words should show love and care.

Exam Tip: Look for adjectives (describing words) in the poem that appear twice or sound similar - these make good rhyming pairs for answering this type of question.

Note:

Word Choice Explanation - "Ma" (Mother):

When we add the suffix 'आ' (ā) to the word "मा" (mā - mother), it becomes "माँ" (mā̃ - mother). This small change in how we write and say the word shows a special closeness and affection. The chandrabindu mark (ँ) placed above the word shows this tender feeling. Many other words in Hindi work the same way, where adding these special marks makes the meaning and feeling more personal and loving.

The poem expresses love and respect for all family members through beautiful, paired words that create a rhythmic and musical quality. Each word pair chosen helps paint a picture of family relationships - showing mothers as innocent yet truthful, dear yet unique. This style of writing using rhyming and repeated words is a way to make feelings stronger and easier to remember.
