ok
bi
gi

Identify the common word in both given sentences and find the unique code string that appears in both corresponding code sets.
Identify the common word in both given sentences and find the unique code string that appears in both corresponding code sets.
Analyze the given sentences
Sentence 1: 'why him though' → 'kl gi ok'. Sentence 2: 'though is he' → 'ok bi yg'.
Identify the common element
The word 'though' is the only common word between the two sentences.
Match the common code
Comparing the code sets 'kl, gi, ok' and 'ok, bi, yg', the only code present in both is 'ok'. Therefore, 'though' corresponds to 'ok'.
A: kl is present only in the first sentence, so it represents why or him. C: bi is present only in the second sentence, so it represents is or he. D: gi is present only in the first sentence, so it represents why or him.
B is correct because 'ok' is the only code string shared between the two given sets, which matches the single common word 'though'.
In coding-decoding questions with multiple sentences, always map the words to their codes by intersecting the sets; do not try to decode word-by-word if order is not fixed.
