Harish himself wrote the poem. The underlined words are :
Options:
- Noun, Pronoun
- Noun, Adjective
- Noun, Adverb
- Noun, Noun
Right Answer: Noun, Pronoun
In the sentence 'Harish himself wrote the poem', the underlined words are 'Harish' and 'himself'. 'Harish' is a proper noun as it names a particular person. 'Himself' here is an emphatic (emphasising) pronoun, used to lay stress on the subject and show that no one else wrote the poem. The same word can also act as a reflexive pronoun when the action returns to the doer, as in 'He hurt himself'. Since a reflexive or emphatic pronoun is still a pronoun, the correct answer is Noun, Pronoun.
