19 of 58 cards from the Verbal Intelligence deck โ real questions with worked answers.
What is a word analogy?
A reasoning task where you identify the logical relationship between a given pair of words and apply that same relationship to complete or match a second pair (A is to B as C is to D).
In an analogy, what is the standard notation 'A : B :: C : D' read as?
'A is to B as C is to D' โ the colon (:) means 'is to' and the double colon (::) means 'as', indicating the two pairs share the same relationship.
What is the first and most important step in solving any analogy?
Identify the exact relationship between the first pair of words, then apply that identical relationship to find or verify the missing term.
Name the main types of relationships used in word analogies.
Synonym, antonym, part-to-whole, cause-and-effect, worker-and-tool, worker-and-product, object-and-function, category-and-member, degree/intensity, and symbol-and-meaning.
Give an example of a 'part to whole' analogy.
Finger : Hand :: Petal : Flower โ a finger is part of a hand just as a petal is part of a flower.
Give an example of a 'worker and tool' analogy.
Carpenter : Saw :: Surgeon : Scalpel โ each worker uses the given tool.
Give an example of a 'cause and effect' analogy.
Fire : Burn :: Knife : Cut โ the first word causes the action/effect of the second.
Give an example of a 'worker and product' analogy.
Author : Book :: Composer : Symphony โ each worker creates the corresponding product.
In the analogy Dog : Puppy :: Cat : ?, what is the answer and the relationship?
Kitten; the relationship is animal to its young (adult to offspring).
What relationship connects the pair 'Hot : Cold'?
Antonym (opposite) relationship.
What does 'Relationship Identification' require you to do in verbal reasoning?
Determine the precise logical connection (such as synonym, antonym, part-whole, cause-effect, or function) between two given words before solving the analogy.
In 'Completing the Analogy', what should the chosen answer always satisfy?
It must reproduce the exact same relationship found in the first pair, in the same order/direction.
Why does word order matter in analogies?
Because the direction of the relationship must stay consistent; reversing it (e.g., whole:part instead of part:whole) gives a wrong answer.
What is a synonym?
A word that has the same or nearly the same meaning as another word.
What is an antonym?
A word that has the opposite meaning of another word.
Give a synonym for 'Happy'.
Joyful (also: glad, cheerful, content, delighted).
Give a synonym for 'Brave'.
Courageous (also: bold, fearless, valiant, gallant).
Give a synonym for 'Big'.
Large (also: huge, enormous, gigantic, massive).
Give a synonym for 'Clever'.
Intelligent (also: smart, sharp, bright, shrewd).
