Question

In a certain coded language 'INDICT' is coded as 'YGLIRL' and 'NEATLY' is coded as 'DPWFIQ'. How will 'DIALOG' be coded in the same code language?

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

LSOFMG

This is another letter-shifting code, but with a six-letter word, so we expect a six-step shift pattern applied after some rearrangement.

Testing INDICT → YGLIRL shows the word is first reversed and then the repeating shift +5, +4, +3, +5, +4, +3 is applied.

Verify: INDICT reversed is TCIDNI; then T+5=Y, C+4=G, I+3=L, D+5=I, N+4=R, I+3=L, spelling YGLIRL — correct.

Verify the second clue: NEATLY reversed is YLTAEN; then Y+5=D, L+4=P, T+3=W, A+5=F, E+4=I, N+3=Q, spelling DPWFIQ — correct.

Now apply the same rule to DIALOG. First reverse it to get GOLAID.

Then shift by +5, +4, +3, +5, +4, +3: G+5=L, O+4=S, L+3=O, A+5=F, I+4=M, D+3=G, spelling LSOFMG.

Hence DIALOG is coded as LSOFMG.
