1. Answer the following questions (गाहायाव होनाय सोंलुफोरनि फिन्नाय हो):
a) What happened during the earthquake?
( बांग्रिं मावग्लुंनाय समाव मा जादोंमोन? )
Ans: During the earthquake, the ground shook violently, the hills trembled, and pieces of rocks and earth began to fall down.

(रबिनसन क्रुस’आ बांग्रि मावनाय समाव मानो रैखाथि मोनदाङाखैमोन?
Ans: Robinson Crusoe didn’t feel safe because the tremors were very strong, the ground beneath him was shaking, and he thought the hill might collapse on him or split open.
c) Why did the sea become fearful?
(लैथोआ मानो गिथाव जादोंमोन?)
