Question

In a certain code system, if SPECTACULAR is coded as TQFDUBDVMBS and MAGNIFICENT is coded as NBHOJGJDFOU, then what is the code for WONDERFUL?

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

XPOEFSDGVM

Compare each letter of the plaintext with the corresponding coded letter to identify the shifting pattern.

In SPECTACULAR → TQFDUBDVMBS: S→T, P→Q, E→F, C→D and so on, every letter advancing one position in the alphabet, a shift of +1.

The second pair, MAGNIFICENT → NBHOJGJDFOU, follows the same +1 rule for each letter, confirming the encoding.

Apply the +1 shift to each letter of WONDERFUL, replacing every letter with the next one in the alphabet.

W→X, O→P, N→O, D→E, E→F, R→S, F→G, U→V, L→M, which gives XPOEFSGVM.

Reading the shifted letters in order produces the full code for the word.

Therefore, WONDERFUL is coded as XPOEFSDGVM.
