Correct answer: C. born of Manu, one who eats manमनु से उत्पन्न, मनुष्य को खाने वाला
Explanation
'मनुजात' = मनु + जात, i.e. born of Manu (a human being). 'मनुजाद' = मनुज + अद, i.e. one who eats human beings (a demon). So the order is मनु से उत्पन्न, मनुष्य को खाने वाला.'मनुजात' = मनु + जात अर्थात् मनु से उत्पन्न (मनुष्य)। 'मनुजाद' = मनुज + अद अर्थात् मनुष्य को खाने वाला (राक्षस)। अतः क्रमशः सही अर्थ मनु से उत्पन्न, मनुष्य को खाने वाला है।More Hindi Language & Pedagogy questions
