Questions & Answers about मोज़े अलग हैं।
Why is it मोज़े and not मोज़ा?
Because मोज़ा is the singular form, and मोज़े is the plural direct form.
- मोज़ा = a sock
- मोज़े = socks
Since the sentence talks about more than one sock, Hindi uses मोज़े.
What gender is मोज़ा?
मोज़ा is a masculine noun.
That matters because many masculine nouns ending in -ा change like this:
- singular direct: मोज़ा
- plural direct: मोज़े
So मोज़े अलग हैं matches the normal masculine plural pattern.
Why is the verb हैं used instead of है?
Because the subject is plural.
- है = is
- हैं = are
So:
- मोज़ा अलग है। = The sock is separate/different.
- मोज़े अलग हैं। = The socks are separate/different.
Why doesn’t अलग change form?
