Riddle

Brothers and sisters have I none, But that man's father is my father's son. Who is "that man"?

Choose an answer

A.The speaker's father
B.The speaker's uncle
C.The speaker's nephew
D.The son of the speaker.
Hint: It's a 5-word phrase with 18 letters, starting with "T".

Answer

The son of the speaker.

Why this is the answer

Since the speaker has no siblings, "my father's son" must be the speaker himself, making "that man's father" the speaker — so "that man" is the speaker's son.
