Question:

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.
Pig : Oink Oink :: Rabbit : ?

Options:

Sty

Grunt

Burrow

Bunny

Correct Answer:

Grunt

Explanation:

The answer is Grunt.

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.

  • Pig is an animal that makes a noise called oink oink.
  • Rabbit is an animal that makes a noise called grunt.
  • Sty is a place where pigs are kept, not a noise that a pig makes.
  • Burrow is a hole that a rabbit lives in, not a noise that a rabbit makes.
  • Bunny is a young rabbit, not a noise that a rabbit makes.
