Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
___ was not a marriage that could last.

• A. My
• B. Her
• C. Them
• D. Theirs
• E. Our

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Theirs

Option "D" is the correct option.

EXPLANATION :

A pronoun is a word that is used instead of a noun or noun phrase.

In the first blank, pronoun "theirs" will be used because 'theirs' is a possessive pronoun that is used to relate a particular object, person or a group to the third person. In the given sentence, the speaker is relating marriage with third person that could not last.

Other options are incorrect because they are not possessive pronoun.
