Underlined Pronoun: Himself
The underlined pronoun in the given sentence is "himself". It is a reflexive pronoun.
Explanation:
A reflexive pronoun is used when the subject and the object of a sentence refer to the same person or thing. In this case, the subject is "he" and the object is also "he" himself. The reflexive pronoun "himself" emphasizes that the subject is performing the action on himself.
In the given sentence, "He himself will address the issues", the pronoun "himself" refers back to the subject "he". It emphasizes that "he" will personally take care of addressing the issues.
The other options provided are:
- Demonstrative Pronoun: Demonstrative pronouns are used to point to specific people, places, or things. Examples include "this", "that", "these", and "those". None of these are present in the given sentence.
- Interrogative Pronoun: Interrogative pronouns are used to ask questions. Examples include "who", "whom", "whose", "which", and "what". None of these are present in the given sentence.
- Personal Pronoun: Personal pronouns refer to specific people or things. Examples include "I", "you", "he", "she", "it", "we", and "they". While the pronoun "he" is present in the sentence, it is not the underlined pronoun.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D) Reflexive pronoun.
