***********************************************

THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS:

CONSONANTS ARE ADDED +1 OF ALPHABETICAL POSITIONAL VALUE

VOWELS ARE SUBTRACTED -1 OF ALPHABETICAL POSITIONAL VALUE

AS

M →(+1) → N

A → (-1) → Z

N → (+1) → O

I →(-1) → H

A → (-1) → Z

AND

P →(+1) → Q

R → (+1) → S

O → (-1) → N

U →(-1) → T

D → (+1) → E

SIMILARLY

D →(+1) → E

O → (-1) → N

N → (+1) → O

K → (+1) → L

E → (-1) → D

Y → (+1) → Z
