Answer to Question 1

TRUE
An antecedent is a noun or noun phrase that is referred to by the pronoun. A pronoun that
ends in self must have a clear antecedent within the sentence.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
Pronouns ending in self that emphasize the use of a noun or another pronoun are performing
their intensive function. The reflexive function of pronouns is to refer to a noun or pronoun that
has already been used in a sentence.
