Question

Choose the option that best fills in the blank:
I will perform the operation _____.

• A. yourself
• B. myself
• C. himself
• D. themselves

Answer 1

The correct option is B myself

When the subject and the object of the verb is the same person or thing, we use a reflexive pronoun.

In the given sentence the subject and the object of the verb is 'I'.

The reflexive pronoun for singular first person 'I' is 'myself'.

Thus option B is the correct answer.

'Himself' and 'Themselves' are the reflexive pronouns for the singular and plural third persons respectively. Thus options C and D are incorrect.

The reflexive pronoun for singular second person is 'yourself'. Thus option A is incorrect.
