Correct answer: B. 'देश, त्योहार, नदी' are examples of proper nouns.देश, त्योहार, नदी उक्त व्यक्तिवाचक संज्ञा के उदाहरण हैं।
Explanation
देश, त्योहार and नदी name whole classes of things, so they are common nouns (जातिवाचक); proper nouns would be names like भारत, दीवाली, गंगा. The other statements are consistent with the traditional classification. Hence the answer is statement 2.देश, त्योहार और नदी पूरी जाति का बोध कराते हैं, इसलिए ये जातिवाचक संज्ञाएँ हैं; व्यक्तिवाचक संज्ञा के उदाहरण भारत, दीवाली, गंगा जैसे नाम होंगे। अन्य कथन परंपरागत वर्गीकरण के अनुरूप हैं। अतः असंगत कथन 2 है।More Hindi Language & Pedagogy questions
