(B) From Q. 1, we know that in the second statement, "cin' means 'drivers' and
3.
'din' means were'. In the first and second statements, the common code-word is
gin' and the common word is 'always'. So, 'gin' means 'always. Thus, in the
second statement, 'hin' means 'punished'. Now, in the first statement, fin' means
1ate' and 'gin' means 'always'. In the first and third statements, the common
code-word is 'bin' and the common word is trains'. So, 'bin' means trains. Thus,
in the first statement, 'min' means 'are'. In the fourth statement, 'din' means
were, fin' means late' and vin' means 'all'. So, kin' means 'passengers'
Hence, 'hin min kin' would mean 'passengers are punished'.
