Question

A code language is formulated thus: Vowels in the original word are replaced by the next vowel from the list of vowels, A-E-I-O-U (For example, E is replaced by I and U is replaced by A). Consonants in the original word are replaced by the previous consonant (For example, T is replaced by S and V is replaced by T). Then how does the word, GOODMORNING appear in the coded language?

• A. HUUFNUSPOPH
• B. FIICLIQMEMF
• C. FUUCLUQMOMF
• D. HEEDATTACRH

Hint:

When decoding or encoding based on letter substitutions, break down each character and apply the transformation rules step by step. Keep track of vowels and consonants separately for accuracy.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Let us break down the word GOODMORNING and apply the rules:
1. Vowels rule:
- O is replaced by U (the next vowel).
- O is replaced by U (the next vowel).
- O is replaced by U (the next vowel).
- I is replaced by O (the next vowel).
- I is replaced by O (the next vowel).
2. Consonants rule:
- G is replaced by F (the previous consonant).
- D is replaced by C (the previous consonant).
- M remains M (no previous consonant before M in the alphabet).
- R is replaced by Q (the previous consonant).
- N is replaced by M (the previous consonant).
- N is replaced by M (the previous consonant).
- G is replaced by F (the previous consonant).
Thus, the coded word for GOODMORNING is FUUCLUQMOMF.
