correct the error in the following
1. By decades this fort is here- (will it be since decades)

Hi Mallika,

Kindly find the answer to your query:

The correct answer should be "Since decades this fort is here."

Since is used for a 'period of time' and decade is not a 'point of time' but a span of time.
