Fill in the blank with a suitable article from the options given.
___________ bravery of Lakshmi Bai is praiseworthy.
Articles are a type of adjective that are used with nouns to provide some additional information about nouns.
There are three articles used in English grammar: a, an and the.
‘A’ and ‘an’ are known as indefinite articles and are used to refer to indefinite and non- specific or general nouns. 'A' is used when the word begins with a consonant and 'an' is used when the word following it begins with a vowel.‘The’ is called as the definite article and is used to refer to specific nouns.
The sentence given talks about 'bravery' of Lakshmi Bai being praiseworthy. When a particular noun is being used with an adjective, article 'the' is supposed to be used before the adjective to indicate specificity. So, here the adjective is 'bravery' and the noun is 'Lakshmi Bai'. So, the article to fill in the blank is option A) the.
The other answers are incorrect as they 'a' and 'an' are not used to denote something specific.
