Here are some words translated from an artificial language
hirpa nig means bat ball
kirpa nig means foot ball
kirpa nad means foot mark
Which word would mean "mark sheet" ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → nad tyan
In such codes, a word that appears in two phrases stands for the meaning the two phrases share.
“hirpa nig” = bat ball and “kirpa nig” = foot ball: the common word nig = ball, so hirpa = bat and kirpa = foot
“kirpa nad” = foot mark: kirpa = foot, so nad = mark
“sheet” is not in any given phrase, so its code must be a new word
“Mark sheet” must therefore contain nad and a word not used so far. Only “nad tyan” does; the other options use hirpa (bat) or kirpa (foot).
