Identify common words across sentences to directly match words with their code words.
Analyze Statement 1 and Statement 2
Statement 1: 'tiger is the king' = 'ki ni hi li'. Statement 2: 'king rules the kingdom' = 'di li ti ni'. The common words are 'king' and 'the', and the common codes are 'ni' and 'li'.
Analyze Statement 1 and Statement 3
Statement 3: 'the baby is sleeping' = 'gi ni si ki'. The common words between Statement 1 and Statement 3 are 'is' and 'the', and the common codes are 'ni' and 'ki'.
Deduce the Code for 'tiger'
From Statement 1 ('ki ni hi li'), 'the' and 'is' correspond to 'ni' and 'ki' (or 'li'), and 'king' corresponds to 'ni' or 'li'. The remaining word 'tiger' corresponds strictly to 'ki'.
A: 'ni' represents 'is' or 'king'/'the'. B: 'li' represents 'the' or 'king'. C: 'hi' is incorrect as it represents another word. D: 'ki' correctly represents 'tiger'.
D is correct because 'ki' corresponds to 'tiger' after eliminating the common codes for 'the', 'is', and 'king' across the given sentences.
Always list down overlapping words and their corresponding codes sequentially to avoid missing any matches.
