Question

Choose the noun(s) in the following sentence:
The lady in the car is my mother.

• A. lady, car
• B. the, in
• C. in, is
• D. lady, car, mother

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

A noun is a word that names something: either a person, place, or thing.

Option D is the correct answer as lady, car and mother are non-specific, generic nouns.

Option A is incorrect because lady and car are not the only nouns in the sentence.

Options B and C are incorrect because 'the' is an article, 'in' is a preposition and 'is' is the present tense of 'be'; they are not nouns.
