Assertion - I : Analogy brings about regularity in the paradigm. Assertion - II : Analogy destroys the paradigmatic regularity.
Codes :
Answer: B
The key takes both statements as true. Analogy brings regularity into the paradigm by levelling irregular forms to a common pattern, as when a plural like 'kine' gives way to 'cows'. Analogical change can also upset an existing regular set, because a new form made on one pattern may disturb another, which is how the second statement is read.
The option that calls the first statement false is wrong, since analogy is the main force that regularises paradigms. The key is kept as printed.
