Think and write in your own words.
Why did the traveller choose the road less travelled? What attribute of the traveller does it bring out?
उत्तर
The road less travelled means the road had not been used by many which may have forced the writer to take an experience which very few had taken. The Poet's decision of choosing the other roadshows that he is an optimist who is full of hopeful confidence, spark, and creative energy. He is a person who believes in magic and endless possibilities.
