Question (English)

In a certain code language, 'SILK' is written as 'TIML' and 'INSECT' is written as 'IOTEDU'. How will 'CHANGE' be written in that language?

  1. DEIHAO
  2. DOIHAE
  3. DIAOHE ✓ Correct
  4. DEIOHA
Explanation:

The logic follows a rule based on whether the letter is a Vowel or a Consonant:

  • Consonants: Increase by $+1$ (Next letter).
  • Vowels (A, E, I, O, U): Remain unchanged (Same letter).

Decoding 'SILK':
S (Consonant) $\rightarrow$ T
I (Vowel) $\rightarrow$ I
L (Consonant) $\rightarrow$ M
K (Consonant) $\rightarrow$ L
Result: TIML

Applying to 'CHANGE':

  • C (Consonant) $\xrightarrow{+1}$ D
  • H (Consonant) $\xrightarrow{+1}$ I
  • A (Vowel) $\xrightarrow{same}$ A
  • N (Consonant) $\xrightarrow{+1}$ O
  • G (Consonant) $\xrightarrow{+1}$ H
  • E (Vowel) $\xrightarrow{same}$ E

The code is DIAOHE.

प्रश्न (हिंदी)

एक निश्चित कूट भाषा में, 'SILK' को 'TIML' लिखा जाता है और 'INSECT' को 'IOTEDU' लिखा जाता है। उसी भाषा में 'CHANGE' को कैसे लिखा जाएगा?

  1. DEIHAO
  2. DOIHAE
  3. DIAOHE
  4. DEIOHA
स्पष्टीकरण:

यहाँ तर्क इस नियम पर आधारित है कि अक्षर स्वर (Vowel) है या व्यंजन (Consonant):

  • व्यंजन (Consonants): $+1$ की वृद्धि (अगला अक्षर)।
  • स्वर (Vowels): अपरिवर्तित रहते हैं (वही अक्षर)।

'CHANGE' के लिए कूट:

  • C (व्यंजन) $\xrightarrow{+1}$ D
  • H (व्यंजन) $\xrightarrow{+1}$ I
  • A (स्वर) $\xrightarrow{समान}$ A
  • N (व्यंजन) $\xrightarrow{+1}$ O
  • G (व्यंजन) $\xrightarrow{+1}$ H
  • E (स्वर) $\xrightarrow{समान}$ E

अतः सही कूट DIAOHE है।
