Question 1

In a certain code language 'rear mirror look car' means 'non hiq gae euw', 'car never take turn' means 'vih moq euw puv', 'wrong turn causes accident' means 'jeq moq yov vuv' and 'but accident occurs sometimes' means 'vuv zey bai giz'. Then 'vuv moq' is the code for which words?

 A

accident turn

Soln.
Ans: a

'accident' is common to items 3 and 4. So 'accident' = 'vuv'. Next we can see that 'turn' is common to items 2 and 3. So 'turn' = 'moq'. Hence 'vuv moq' should be 'accident turn' or 'turn accident'
