Fill in the blank with a suitable reflexive pronoun from the options given below:-
They agreed amongst ___ that they would not tell anyone.
(a) herself
(b) himself
(c) themselves
(d) myself
Solution:
Reflexive pronouns are words ending with ‘self’ or ‘selves’ that are used when the subject and the object of a sentence are the same. The pronoun used in the given sentence is ‘they’ and the corresponding reflexive pronoun is ‘themselves’.
They agreed amongst themselves that they would not tell anyone.
Hence option c is the answer.
