Our teacher didn’t knew that Akaash was suspended from the school. Correct Answer Didn’t know that
Option 2 is the correct answer.
The sentence is incorrect because both the auxiliary verb ‘didn’t’ and the verb ‘knew’ are in past tense.
For Option 1 to be correct the sentence should have been ‘Our teacher didn’t know about Akaash being suspended from the school’ but since the latter part of the sentence doesn’t agree with ‘about’, hence it cannot be selected as the right answer.
Option 3 is wrong because the tense of the sentence and that of the verb do not agree with each other. ‘Doesn’t’ is an auxiliary verb in present tense while words used in the latter part of the sentence like ‘was’ and ‘suspended’ indicate that the sentence is in past tense, therefore, this option is also incorrect.
Option 2 is correct because with auxiliary verb ‘didn’t’ and ‘did not’ simple present form of the verb is used which here is ‘know’.
Correct sentence:
‘Our teacher didn’t know that Akaash was suspended from the school.’
