lor
This problem involves decoding words in a specific language based on given sentences and their coded representations. The key is to find common words across different sentences and identify their corresponding common code words. This method helps in eliminating possibilities and isolating the code for each word.
Let's break down the given information:
We need to find the code word for 'so'.
Let's look at the first two sentences:
The common word in both sentences is 'it'. The common code word is 'kor'. Therefore, the code for 'it' is 'kor'.
| Word | Code |
|---|---|
| it | kor |
Now let's compare the first and third sentences:
The common word in these two sentences is 'be'. The common code word is 'nor'. Therefore, the code for 'be' is 'nor'.
| Word | Code |
|---|---|
| be | nor |
We now know the codes for 'it' and 'be'. Let's look back at Sentence 1:
Substitute the known codes:
If we remove 'kor' and 'nor' from both sides, we are left with 'so' on one side and 'lor' on the other.
Therefore, the code for 'so' is 'lor'.
| Word | Code |
|---|---|
| so | lor |
By systematically comparing the given sentences and their codes, we have determined that the code word for 'so' is 'lor'.
Here is a summary of the words and their codes we have decoded:
| English Word | Code Language |
|---|---|
| it | kor |
| be | nor |
| so | lor |
This type of problem is common in reasoning tests and is based on substitution. Each word in the English sentence corresponds to exactly one word in the coded sentence. The position of the word in the sentence usually does not matter; it's the word itself that has a unique code. By finding common elements between different coded phrases, you can isolate the codes for individual words. Always cross-reference across all given sentences to confirm your findings if possible, although in this case, the three sentences were sufficient to find the codes for the words needed.
