Question

By understanding the relationship between the first and the second word find the most related word for the third word
Patricide : Father : : Sororicide : ?

• A. Mother
• B. Human
• C. Brother
• D. sister

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

1. Step 1: The term "Patricide" refers to the act of killing one’s father. The prefix "-cide" means "killing of", and when combined with "pater" (Latin for father), it specifically refers to the killing of one’s father.
2. Step 2: Similarly, the term "Sororicide" refers to the act of killing one’s sister, as "soror" is Latin for sister.
3. Thus, the analogy is based on the relationship between the act of killing and the person killed.
4. Step 3: Therefore, the correct term related to "Sororicide" is "Sister." Thus, the correct answer is "Sister."
