I thought this was a phonetics problem. I guess Aghicam said the answer is A, but he didn't offer any explanation. Well if you pronounce the letters in sequence, notice that you form 'O' in the middle of your mouth, 'E' closer to the front, 'N' with the tip of your tongue and 'P' with your teeth on your lip. Thus each of these numbers are created closer and closer to the outside of your mouth. The next letter then could be either B, M or P, all letters that are created only using your lips.

I think the answer is O.

Here is why: The corresponding letters, as someone else pointed out, are 15, 5, 14, 22, respectively. There is a sequence to the letters- o(15) subtracts 10 to go back to e(5), then e(5) adds 9 to get to n(14), then adds 8 to get up to v(22). So the pattern is a descending -10, +9, +8... then next number is 7. It should be -7 (because +7 would be 29, for which there is no letter) so 22-7 = 15- which is the letter O.

The next letter is P.

o goes to e (5 letters from beginning of alphabet)

then n (1 letter better n) goes to v (5 letters from end of alphabet)

to continue:

p f

m u

etc.

Guys if you check Page 3 the answer has already been posted by the OP

sorry guys for a long time offline.

yes, indeed there is a solution for this.

yet, nobody got the correct answer.

well, further reviewed each replies and found this one as correct answer.(A

QUOTE

If you modulate each letter by 13 you get BRAI. I came up with three words that this could be the start of Braid, Braille, or Brain. Brain seems the most logical to me and would result in a missing letter of A, Braid would be (Q) and Braille would have a next letter of (Y).

I am sure someone else has given the correct answer but I had this approach.

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Z Y X W V U T S R Q P O N M L K J I H G F E D C B A

I think that the next letter is L.

When lining up the letters backwards under one another, E and V meet one another, O and L meet one another, as does N and M.

So, I think logically Since O is the first letter I think its partner L would be the next letter.

I'll go with O - just because it seems popular.

This one has me stumped, and it's my first day..should I sit in the corner? --------------------------------->

I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.
