Also great for brain training! Insight quizzes (11–20) where intuition is the key to solving the problems
A man is standing holding two fruits. What dish does this sentence represent?
See the answer
stewed offal (motsu nikomi)
Because a man has two testicles, if you extract the words “hold,” “two,” and “balls/fruit” (motsu, ni, mi), you get motsu-nikomi (stewed offal). The key is to pick out and connect words from the problem statement that seem like hints. Also, imagining from the dish can help ideas come to mind more easily.
The hot water I boiled in a kettle was gone after five hours. Why on earth did that happen?
See the answer
Because it had turned into water
Because five hours had passed since the water was boiled, it had cooled down and turned into water. The phrase “had disappeared” makes you think the hot water vanished somewhere, but the trick is noticing that its state had changed.
In conclusion
We’ve introduced quizzes that test your flash of insight—solving them by finding answers from hidden hints in the questions.
You may have enjoyed puzzles that can be cracked by rephrasing kanji or romaji, or by thinking about the meanings of words.
