21.  To what part of speech is the greatest number of rules applied in parsing? 22.  Of the twenty-four rules in this work, how many are applicable to pronouns? 23.  Of the seven rules for cases, how many are applicable to relatives and interrogatives? 24.  What is remarked of the ellipsis or omission of the relative? 25.  What is said of the suppression of the antecedent? 26.  What is noted of the word which, as applied to persons? 27.  What relative is applied to a proper noun taken merely as a name? 28.  When do we employ the same relative in successive clauses? 29.  What odd use is sometimes made of the pronoun your? 30.  Under what figure of syntax did the old grammarians rank the plural construction of a noun of multitude? 31.  Does a collective noun with a singular definitive before it ever admit of a plural verb or pronoun? 32.  Do collective nouns generally admit of being made literally plural? 33.  When joint antecedents are of different persons, with which person does the pronoun agree? 34.  When joint antecedents differ in gender, of what gender is the pronoun? 35.  Why is it wrong to say, “The first has a lenis, and the other an asper over them?” 36.  Can nouns without and be taken jointly, as if they had it? 37.  Can singular antecedents be so suggested as to require a plural pronoun, when only one of them is uttered? 38.  Why do singular antecedents connected by or or nor appear to require a singular pronoun? 39.  Can different antecedents connected by or be accurately represented by differing pronouns connected in the same way? 40.  Why are we apt to use a plural pronoun after antecedents of different genders? 41.  Do the Latin grammars teach the same doctrine as the English, concerning nominatives or antecedents connected disjunctively?
