Question
Which of the following sentence(s) is/are grammatically correct?S1: The army is doing his work.S2: The army is doing its work.S2S1Neither S1nor S2Both S1 and S2
Solution
The correct sentence is S2: "The army is doing its work."
In English, we use "its" as the possessive form for singular nouns that are not specifically male or female. In this case, "army" is a collective noun that refers to a group as a single entity, so we use "its" instead of "his" or "her."
