Of which country is Bangkok the capital?

• A. Capital
• B. Bangkok
• C. Country
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Bangkok

The correct answer is Option B.

A proper noun is a specific name of a person, place or thing. This name is exclusively used for that person, place or thing.

In the given sentence BANGKOK is the name of a particular city. Therefore it is the proper noun in the given sentence.

Options A and C are incorrect because they are common nouns i.e. they do not point to or name anything specific

Since Option B is the correct answer, Option D is incorrect.
