Which part of speech is the underlined word in the following sentence ?
The kind of language learnt in each setting differs too.
Answer: B
The underlined word each is a determiner.
A determiner comes before a noun and specifies which or how many. In 'in each setting', each comes before the noun setting and picks out every one of the settings individually, just as every, this or some would.
It is not a pronoun here, because it does not stand alone in place of a noun (as in 'each of them'). It does not join clauses, so it is not a conjunction, and it does not relate a noun to another word, so it is not a preposition; the preposition in the phrase is in.
