Choose the correct meaning of the idiom: On the same wavelength

This question was previously asked in
SSC CHSL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (21-Nov-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Having similar ideas and understanding each other well

The question asks for the meaning of the idiom 'On the same wavelength'.

This idiom describes two or more people who think in a similar way and understand each other easily.

The option 'Having similar ideas and understanding each other well' captures this meaning exactly.

The image behind the idiom comes from radios tuned to the same frequency, so the people are 'in tune' with each other.

'Talking to someone for a long time' refers only to duration and misses the idea of shared understanding.

'Waiting for a good opportunity to speak' is unrelated to being in agreement.

'Arguing about a different point of view' is actually the opposite of being on the same wavelength.

Hence the correct meaning is Having similar ideas and understanding each other well.
