Grammatical categories such as pronouns and articles are essential for reference and determination in English discourse. With regard to the use of these grammatical categories, select the CORRECT alternative.


A

The definite article "the" must be used before all names of countries and cities to guarantee the correct syntactic determination of geographic locations.


B

Relative pronouns like "who" are used for people, while "which" is used for things and animals, and "whose" indicates a possessive relationship between two nouns.


C

Adverbs of manner are formed by adding the suffix "-ness" to adjectives, such as "happy" becoming "happyness" to describe how an action is performed.


D

Reflexive pronouns, such as "myself" or "ourselves," are used exclusively at the beginning of a sentence to replace the subject in formal academic writing.
