Lesson 1 Sentences

‘Partha book” বলতে আমরা বুঝি ‘পার্থ বই’। সুতরাং এতে মনের ভাব বা অর্থ সম্পূর্ণরূপে প্রকাশ পায় না। অতএব, এটা বাক্য নয়। কিন্তু ‘Partha reads a book’ বললে বোঝায় ‘পার্থ একটি বই পড়ে’। এতে মনের ভাব সম্পূর্ণরূপে প্রকাশ পেয়েছে। সুতরাং, এটা একটি বাক্য। এইরূপ,

• Did – I did it.
• Can do – I can do it.
• They are – They are good boys.
• Reads the book – Rabi reads the book.
• What is – What is your name ?
• In the garden – The boys play in the garden.

লক্ষ্য কর, উপরের শব্দ (word) বা শব্দ সমষ্টি ( words) – গুলির মধ্যে বামদিকের শব্দগুলি কোন সম্পূর্ণ অর্থ বা মনের ভাব প্রকাশ করে না, কিন্তু ডানদিকের শব্দগুলি মিলিত হয়ে একটি সম্পূর্ণ অর্থ বা মনের ভাব প্রকাশ করছে। এইরূপ

যখন দুই বা ততোধিক শব্দ বা words একত্রে বসে একটি সম্পূর্ণ অর্থ প্রকাশ করে, তখন সেই শব্দ-সমষ্টিকে Sentence বা বাক্য বলে।

A Sentence is a word or group of words giving a complete sense.

লক্ষ্য রেখো, শুধু শব্দসমষ্টি হলেই sentence হয় না; সম্পূর্ণ অর্থ প্রকাশ করা চাই। সেইজন্য বামদিকের কোন শব্দসমষ্টিই sentence নয় – ডানদিকের প্রত্যেকটি শব্দসমষ্টি এক একটি sentence.

WBBSE English Miscellaneous Lesson 1.2 Solutions

কিছু কিছু ক্ষেত্রে মাত্র একটি শব্দ দিয়ে একটি বাক্য গঠন করা সম্ভব, যেমন—

• Mira-is Arun your brother?
• Roma-Yes.

এখানে ‘Yes’ শব্দটি একটি বাক্য গঠন করেছে।

সেইরূপ Go—যাও, Come—এস, Stop —থাম, প্রভৃতি আদেশবাচক এক-একটি শব্দই (word) এক-একটি sentence.

মনে রেখো, words (শব্দ সমষ্টি) পাশাপাশি বসে পূর্ণ অর্থ বা মনের ভাব প্রকাশ করলে তবেই একটি sentence গঠিত হয়। নীচে লক্ষ্য কর কিভাবে এলোমেলোভাবে দেওয়া wordsগুলি সঠিকভাবে বসিয়ে sentence গঠিত হয়েছে :

Introductory “There”এর মতো Introductory “It”-এর ব্যবহার প্রচলিত আছে। এই “It”- এরও কোনও অর্থ নেই, কেবল sentence-টি আরম্ভ করাই এর কাজ। যেমন :

• It is summer now – এখন গ্রীষ্মকাল।
• It is very hot today – আজ বড় গরম ।
• It is night – রাত্রি হয়েছে।
• It is ten o’clock now – এখন বেলা দশটা।

• It is difficult to say now – এখন বলা কঠিন।
• It is good for health to take bath everyday – প্রত্যহ স্নান করা স্বাস্থ্যের পক্ষে ভাল।
• It was not proper for you to go there — তোমার সেখানে যাওয়া উচিত হয় নি।

বাংলায় যেখানে করা, বলা, যাওয়া, থাকা, হওয়া – প্রভৃতি ক্রিয়াপদ বাক্যের subject-রূপে ব্যবহৃত হয়, সে সমস্ত স্থানে আমরা Introductory “It” দ্বারা সেই বাক্যের শুরু করি।
