TYPE 9 : ALPHABET ANALOGY
In this type of questions, two group of letters related to each other in some way,are given.the candidate is required to find out this relationship and then choose either a letter-group which is related in the same way to a third group provided in the questions or pair consisting of similarly related letter-groups.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES
Ex.1. BEGK is related to ADFJ in the same way as PSVY is related to …….?......
(a) LOQT(b) ROUX(c) OTUZ(d) ORUX
Sol. Clearly, each letter of the first group in a pair is moved one step backward to obtain the corresponding letter of the second group.
B E G K P S V Y
-1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1
A D F J O R U X
Hence ,the answer is (d).
Ex.2. ABCD : NPRT : : FGHI : ?
Sol. Clearly, the first, second, third and fourth letters of the first group are moved 13,14,15 and 16 steps forward respectivel to obtain the corresponding letters of the second group.
A B C D F G H I
+13 +14 +15 +16 +13 +14 +15 +16
N P R T S U W Y
Ex.3. BLOCKED : YOLXPVW : : ? : OZFMXS
(a) LAUNCH(b) DEBATE(c) LABOUR(d) RESULT
Sol. Clearly,each letter in the first group occupies the same positions from the beginning of the alphabet as is occupied by the corresponding letter of the secong group from the end of the alphabet.
Now, O,Z,F,M,X,S are respectively the 12th , 1st, 21st, 14th ,3rd, 8th letters from the end of the alphabet. Thus, the required letter group shall have in order the 12th , 1st, 21st, 14th ,3rd, 8th letters from the beginning of the alphabet, which is LAUNCH.
Hence ,the answer is (a).
