Previous Year Question (PYQs)
Study the information carefully and answer the questions given below:
If we arrange the alphabets in the word "RATE" in the English alphabetical order, word "AERT" is formed. Then the third alphabet from the left in this word is "R". similarly, from the word "OPEN" we get - "ENOP" and the third alphabet from the left is "O". From the word "CHEF" we get - "CEFH" the third alphabet from the left "F". From the word "TOY" we get - "OTY" and the third alphabet from the left is "Y". If we use all these letters, then a meaningful English word "FORTY" can be formed.
Now find which of the following word set DOES NOT give a meaningful word in the similar way.
Solution
Word Set Analysis: Meaningful Word Formation
Method: For each word, arrange letters alphabetically and take the third letter from left. Combine these letters to check if they form a meaningful word.
1. SAME, ROOM, BEST, AUTO
- SAME: A, E, M, S → 3rd letter = M
- ROOM: M, O, O, R → 3rd letter = O
- BEST: B, E, S, T → 3rd letter = S
- AUTO: A, O, T, U → 3rd letter = T
Letters: M O S T → "MOST" (Meaningful)
2. GOAT, PEST, WATT, ARMY
- GOAT: A, G, O, T → 3rd letter = O
- PEST: E, P, S, T → 3rd letter = S
- WATT: A, T, T, W → 3rd letter = T
- ARMY: A, M, R, Y → 3rd letter = R
Letters: O S T R → No meaningful English word from these 4 letters
3. MALE, FIND, LOST, THAT
- MALE: A, E, L, M → 3rd letter = L
- FIND: D, F, I, N → 3rd letter = I
- LOST: L, O, S, T → 3rd letter = S
- THAT: A, H, T, T → 3rd letter = T
Letters: L I S T → "LIST" (Meaningful)
4. JUMP, LIME, DUMB, SOME
- JUMP: J, M, P, U → 3rd letter = P
- LIME: E, I, L, M → 3rd letter = L
- DUMB: B, D, M, U → 3rd letter = M
- SOME: E, M, O, S → 3rd letter = O
Letters: P L M O → No meaningful English word
Answer: The word sets that do NOT give a meaningful word are:
