Question:

If in a certain language, 'oka thi' means 'cold weather'; 'doja tu' means 'hot climate' and 'tu ni oka' means 'weather is hot', which word in that language means 'is'?

Options:

oka

ni

doja

tu

Correct Answer:

ni

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) →ni

Given statements

  1. oka thi = cold weather

  2. doja tu = hot climate

  3. tu ni oka = weather is hot

The common word in 1 and 3 is  “cold weather” and “weather is hot” is weather, and the common coded word is oka. So, oka = weather.

Now compare:

  • doja tu = hot climate

  • tu ni oka = weather is hot

The common meaning is hot, and the common coded word is tu. So, tu = hot.

That leaves: ni = is
