EnglishCorrelating Sentences
- Amy whole luggage were stolen
- Bmy part luggage was stolen
- Call my luggage was stolen
- Dmy some luggage was stolen
Explanation
The subject is 'luggage', which is an uncountable noun and takes singular verb 'was'. Option (c) 'all my luggage was stolen' is correct. Option (a) 'were stolen' uses plural verb incorrectly, (b) 'my part luggage' is unnatural, (d) 'my some luggage' is ungrammatical. 'Luggage' cannot be pluralized. The quantifier 'all' works with uncountable nouns. Hence option C is correct. Cross-checked with Oswaal CDS Yearwise Solved Papers.
