Is it correct to use for in a sentence like Failure examination was destined him?

No, the sentence "Failure examination was destined him" is grammatically incorrect. Here's why:

* Incorrect Subject-Verb Agreement: "Failure examination" is a singular noun phrase, but the verb "was destined" is in the past tense, which is usually used for singular subjects. You would need a plural verb like "were destined."

* Incorrect Prepositional Phrase: "Destined him" doesn't make grammatical sense. "Destined" usually takes a prepositional phrase like "destined for" or "destined to."

* Awkward Word Choice: "Failure examination" is not a common phrase. It's more natural to say "failing the exam" or "his failure on the exam."

Here are some ways to rewrite the sentence correctly:

* "Failing the exam was destined to shape his future."

* "The failure of his exam was destined to change his life."

* "His failure on the exam was a turning point in his life."

By making these corrections, the sentence becomes grammatically sound and conveys the intended meaning.
