Question

In a certain code 'Lee ra de' means 'what was it', 'mo nil' means ' you go', 'nil pom ra' means 'you like it' and 'tak lee fo' means 'she was sick'
How will you write 'what you like' in that code?

• A. nil ra lee
• B. pom nil ra
• C. nil de pom
• D. pom ra Lee

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

nil de pom

Clearly from 1st and 3rd statements 'ra' means 'it';

So, in 3rd statement 'nil' and 'pom' are codes for 'you & like' not necessarily in the same order.
From 1st and 4th Statement 'lee' means 'was'.

Thus, in 1st statement 'de' means 'what'.
Therefore, the word 'what you like' is written as 'de nil pom' or 'nil de pom'.
Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.
