✓ Correct Answer: Option B Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

Quick Solution

To solve this puzzle, we need to break down the artificial words into their component parts, match them to the English words, and then build the new phrase "yellow flower".


1. Decode the Word Parts

  • First, let's compare the two phrases that share a common word:
    plekafroti means flower garden frotimix means garden salad The common part here is froti, which must mean garden.
  • Now, looking back at plekafroti (flower garden), we can deduce that pleka = flower.
  • Finally, from Lelibroon (yellow hat), while we cannot be 100% certain without more examples, the most straightforward breakdown is that Leli = yellow and broon = hat.

2. Construct the Word for "yellow flower"

- We need to combine the word for "yellow" with the word for "flower".
- From our deductions, "yellow" is Leli and "flower" is pleka.

Combining these two parts logically gives us the word lelipleka.


3. Evaluate the Options

Let's check our constructed word against the options provided to confirm:

  • A. lelifroti = Leli (yellow) + froti (garden) -> "yellow garden". Incorrect.
  • B. lelipleka = Leli (yellow) + pleka (flower) -> "yellow flower". This is the correct match.
  • C. plekabroon = pleka (flower) + broon (hat) -> "flower hat". Incorrect.
  • D. frotibroon = froti (garden) + broon (hat) -> "garden hat". Incorrect.

Final Answer: The word which could mean "yellow flower" is lelipleka.
