3. 'The religious are always happy.' Here 'religious' is —
a) Noun
b) Adjective
c) Verb
d) Adverb
Answer: Noun
Explanation: সাধারণত 'religious' শব্দটি একটি Adjective (ধর্মপরায়ণ), কিন্তু যখন কোনো Adjective-এর আগে 'The' বসে এবং সেটি একটি নির্দিষ্ট শ্রেণির সকল ব্যক্তিকে বোঝায়, তখন তাকে 'Adjectival Noun' বা 'Plural Common Noun' বলা হয়। ব্যাখ্যা: ১. বাক্যের গঠন অনুযায়ী: 'The' + Adjective = Plural Common Noun. ২. এই বাক্যে 'The religious' বলতে 'ধার্মিক ব্যক্তিগণকে' বোঝানো হয়েছে। ৩. খেয়াল করলে দেখবেন, এরপর Verb হিসেবে 'are' (Plural) ব্যবহৃত হয়েছে, যা প্রমাণ করে 'The religious' এখানে Subject বা Noun হিসেবে কাজ করছে। অন্যান্য উদাহরণ: - The poor (গরিবেরা) are born to suffer. - The virtuous (পুণ্যবানেরা) are blessed.
