Section A Answers (Word Recognition & Pronunciation)
-
ஊ (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'ஊர்' (oor) means "village/town". The vowel (உயிரெழுத்து) in it is 'ஊ' which is a nedil (long) vowel introduced in P3. Common mistake: confusing 'ஊ' with 'உ' (kuril short). Here the word clearly shows 'ஊ'. -
எ (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'எழுத்து' (ezhuththu) means "letter/script". First letter is 'எ', a P3 introduced vowel. Mark the first sound only. -
ஐ (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'ஐயா' (aiyaa) is a respectful term. The vowel is 'ஐ', a diphthong introduced in P3. Not 'ஓ' or 'ஔ'. -
ஒ (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'ஒலி' (oli) means "sound". Vowel is 'ஒ', short o. Do not pick 'ஓ' (long o). -
ஓ (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'ஓடு' (odu) means "run" or "tile". Vowel is 'ஓ', long o introduced in P3. -
ஔ (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'ஔகாரம்' contains vowel 'ஔ', the last of P3 vowels. Recognize the word form. -
கிரந்த எழுத்து (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'ஸ்ரீ' is a Grantha letter (கிரந்த எழுத்து) used for Sanskrit loan words. Not a pure Tamil vowel nor aaytha letter (ஃ). -
கிரந்த எழுத்து (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'ஷ' is Grantha consonant. P3 learns ஷ, ஜ, ஹ, ஸ, ஸ்ரீ as Grantha letters. -
கிரந்த எழுத்து (1 mark)
Teaching note: 'ஜ' is Grantha, not aaytha (ஃ) and not uyirmei (vowel-consonant combo). -
கிரந்த எழுத்து (1 mark)

Section B Answers (Text Type)
-
