What this topic covers

One-word substitution replaces a group of words with a single precise word: for example, a person who cannot read or write is “illiterate”. Such words also appear in passages and synonym questions.

How to prepare

  • Learn common categories: people (by profession or habit), places, fields of study, government and society, and words for fear or love of something.
  • Pay attention to word parts that carry meaning in Kashmiri.

Exam tip

Match the definition exactly. If the phrase says “a person who…”, the answer must name a person, not an action or a quality.
