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:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
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).
