Question:

Which among the following pair of words carry the same relationship as - Fear - fearfully

A. Charm - charmingly
B. Day - daily
C. Fun - funny
D. lay - lazy
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

B only

D only

A only

C only

Correct Answer:

A only

Explanation:

Out of the given options, the pair that shares the same relationship as "Fear - fearfully" is:

Option 3: A only: Charm - charmingly

The analogy "Fear - fearfully" establishes the relationship between a noun (Fear) and its corresponding adverb (fearfully). In this case, "fearfully" describes how the action of fearing is performed.

Now, let's analyze each option:

A. Charm - charmingly

  • This follows the same pattern as the original analogy. "Charm" is a noun, and "charmingly" is the corresponding adverb.

B. Day - daily

  • This pair doesn't match the pattern of the original analogy. "Day" is a noun, but "daily" is an adjective (used to describe the frequency of an action).

C. Fun - funny

  • This pair doesn't match the pattern either. "Fun" is a noun, while "funny" is an adjective (used to describe something humorous).

D. Lay - lazy

  • This also doesn't match the pattern. "Lay" is a verb, and "lazy" is an adjective (used to describe a person or thing that is averse to work or activity).
