  • Question
  • Here are some words translated from an artificial language.
    moolokarn means blue sky
    wilkospadi means bicycle race
    moolowilko means blue bicycle
    Which word could mean "racecar"?


  • Options
  • A. wilkozwet
  • B. spadiwilko
  • C. moolobreil
  • D. spadivolo

  • Correct Answer
  • spadivolo 

    Explanation
    From wilkospadi, you can determine that wilko means bicicyle and spadi means race. Therefore, the first part of the word that means racecar should begin with spadi. That limits your choices to b and d. Choice b, spadiwilko, is incorrect because we have already determined that wilkomeans bicycle. Therefore, the answer must be choice d, spadivolo.
