The given analogy is "That : relative pronoun : : why : _______". We need to find the correct word that completes the analogy.
To solve this analogy, let's break it down step by step:
1. "That" is a demonstrative pronoun used to point out something specific.
2. "Relative pronoun" is a type of pronoun that introduces a subordinate clause and connects it to the main clause.
3. "Why" is an interrogative pronoun used to ask for a reason or explanation.
From the given options:
A. Personal pronoun: This option does not fit the analogy as it does not have the same relationship as the given words.
B. Relative pronoun: This is the correct answer as it follows the same pattern as the given analogy.
C. Emphatic pronoun: This option does not fit the analogy as it does not have the same relationship as the given words.
D. Interrogative pronoun: This is the correct answer as it follows the same pattern as the given analogy.
Therefore, the correct answer is D: Interrogative pronoun.
Key Points:
- The analogy is "That : relative pronoun : : why : _______".
- We need to find the correct word that completes the analogy.
- Options A and C can be eliminated as they do not fit the analogy.
- Options B and D follow the same pattern as the given analogy.
- The correct answer is D: Interrogative pronoun.

Analogy Explanation:

The correct analogy in this case is option A: Indefinite pronoun.

Detailed Explanation:

To find the correct analogy, we need to understand the relationship between the given words and identify a similar relationship in the answer choices. Let's break down the analogy:

Each is a distributive pronoun. Distributive pronouns are used to refer to individual members of a group or to distribute something among the members of a group.

: : This symbol represents the analogy and indicates a similar relationship between the words on both sides of it.

someone is an indefinite pronoun. Indefinite pronouns refer to people or things in a general or non-specific way.

Therefore, the relationship between "each" and "someone" is that they are both pronouns, but "each" is a distributive pronoun while "someone" is an indefinite pronoun.

Among the answer choices:

• Indefinite pronoun: This is the correct analogy as it matches the relationship between "each" and "someone."


• Relative pronoun: Relative pronouns are used to introduce relative clauses and connect them to a noun or pronoun. This does not match the relationship between "each" and "someone."


• Emphatic pronoun: Emphatic pronouns are used for emphasis or to intensify a statement. This does not match the relationship between "each" and "someone."


• Interrogative pronoun: Interrogative pronouns are used to ask questions. This does not match the relationship between "each" and "someone."

Therefore, option A: Indefinite pronoun is the correct answer.

To find the correct analogy, we need to identify the relationship between the given words and find a similar relationship among the answer choices.
The relationship between "yours" and "possessive pronoun" is that "yours" is a possessive pronoun. Similarly, we need to find the word that is the same type of pronoun as "myself".
Let's analyze each of the answer choices:
A: Indefinite pronoun
- Indefinite pronouns refer to non-specific people or things, such as "someone" or "anything". It does not match the relationship between "myself" and the given analogy "possessive pronoun". Therefore, option A is incorrect.
B: Relative pronoun
- Relative pronouns are used to connect a clause or phrase to a noun or pronoun. Examples include "who", "which", and "that". This does not match the relationship between "myself" and the given analogy "possessive pronoun". Therefore, option B is incorrect.
C: Emphatic pronoun
- Emphatic pronouns are used to emphasize a noun or pronoun, often ending in "-self" or "-selves". "Myself" is an emphatic pronoun, similar to "yours" being a possessive pronoun. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
D: Interrogative pronoun
- Interrogative pronouns are used to ask questions, such as "who", "what", "which", "whose", and "whom". This does not match the relationship between "myself" and the given analogy "possessive pronoun". Therefore, option D is incorrect.
In conclusion, the correct analogy is:
yours : possessive pronoun :: myself : emphatic pronoun.
