Word relationships

Common analogy types:

  • part : whole (wheel : car)
  • maker : product (baker : bread)
  • tool : user (brush : painter)
  • cause : effect (rain : flood)
Example
finger : hand :: leaf : ? — finger is part of hand, leaf is part of tree.
💡 Tip:State the relationship aloud: "X is to Y as ___". Then test each option.
