In the following question a certain relation exists between the first two words. The same relation also exists between the third and the fourth word. Out of these four words one word is missing and is denoted by a question mark in the question. Find out the missing word from the words given below.
Goose : Squawk :: Horse : ?

Options:

Neigh

Stable

Foal

Moo

Correct Answer:

Neigh

Explanation:

The answer is Neigh.

The relationship between the first two words is that the first word is an animal that makes a certain noise, and the second word is the noise that the animal makes. The same relationship exists between the third and fourth words.

  • Goose is an animal that makes a noise called a squawk.
  • Horse is an animal that makes a noise called a neigh.
  • Stable is a place where horses are kept, not a noise that a horse makes.
  • Foal is a young horse, not a noise that a horse makes.
  • Moo is a noise that a cow makes, not a horse.
