Analogies are pairs of words, shapes, or numbers that have a unique relationship to each other.
To solve one of my analogy puzzles, you look at the first pair and decide what the relationship is.
Then you look at the first half of the second pair, and choose a solution that has the same relationship.

My anaolgy puzzles are separated by colons, like this.

sky : blue :: grass :

Look at the sky : blue part.

This analogy is about the sky and its color.
So the solution would be grass and its color.
There may be more than one correct solution.

sky : blue :: grass : green

Here is a geometric analogy.

Notice shape, size, and color.
The shape does not change in this particular analogy, but it might in others.
The color is the same in the first pair.
The size changes in the first pair.

Here is the solution.
   


Now you try one. This week the puzzle is a verbal analogy.

vowel : five :: consonant :


The solution

vowel : five :: consonant : twenty one
