SSC CGL Coded Language Practice
What this topic tests
Coded Language questions test your ability to decipher hidden patterns or rules used to transform a word, letter, or number into another format.
How to Approach This Topic
Write down the alphabet with corresponding position numbers (1-26). Check for common transformations like fixed shifts (e.g., +2, -1), reversed alphabets, or vowel/consonant specific rules.
Common Question Patterns
Letter-to-letter coding (shifting), letter-to-number coding (position values), and substitution coding (replacing specific words).
Common Mistakes
Ignoring reverse positional values or assuming the same shift applies to all letters without verifying the entire word.
