Q: Here are some words translated from an artificial language.
relftaga means carefree
otaga means careful
fertaga means careless
Which word could mean "aftercare"?
A. zentaga
B. tagafer
C. tagazen
D. relffer
Solution: In this language, the root word taga, which means care, follows the affix (relf, o–, or
fer–). Therefore, in the word aftercare, the root word and the affix would be reversed in the
artificial language. The only choice, then, is tagazen, because tagafer would mean less care.
