Identify common words between given phrases to isolate the unique code for 'done'.
Analyze the commonality
Compare the two phrases: 'here we are' (aj tm yg) and 'are we done' (gm aj tm). The common words are 'we' and 'are', and their codes are 'aj' and 'tm'.
Isolate the unique code
In the second phrase 'are we done' (gm aj tm), since 'are' and 'we' correspond to 'aj' and 'tm', the only remaining word 'done' must correspond to the only remaining code 'gm'.
A: 'aj' represents 'we' or 'are'. B: 'tm' represents 'we' or 'are'. C: 'yg' represents 'here'. D is correct as 'gm' is the only code left for 'done'.
D is correct because 'aj' and 'tm' are shared by both phrases (representing 'we' and 'are'), leaving 'gm' as the only code for the word 'done'.
In coding-decoding puzzles, always list the common words and codes first; this helps in eliminating options quickly without mapping every single word.
