CUTE becomes GYXI Explanation:

• C becomes G -> +4
• U becomes Y -> +4
• T becomes X -> +4
• E becomes I -> +4

Each letter is shifted forward four positions in the alphabet.

Applying the same to RAIN:

• R becomes V -> +4
• A becomes E -> +4
• I becomes M -> +4
• N becomes R -> +4

Therefore, the code for RAIN is VEMR.

LEAF becomes PHCG :

• L becomes P -> +4
• E becomes H -> +3
• A becomes C -> +2
• F becomes G -> +1

Each letter is shifted forward by a decreasing amount (4, 3, 2, 1).

Let's apply the reverse to WSQU:

• W becomes S -> -4
• S becomes P -> -3
• Q becomes O -> -2
• U becomes T -> -1

Therefore, WSQU means SPOT.

CROW becomes ETQY Explanation:

• C becomes E -> +2
• R becomes T -> +2
• O becomes Q -> +2
• W becomes Y -> +2

Each letter is shifted forward two positions in the alphabet.

Applying the same to FINE:

• F becomes H -> +2
• I becomes K -> +2
• N becomes P -> +2
• E becomes G -> +2

Therefore, the code for FINE is HKPG.

TABLE becomes UYCJF Explanation:

T becomes U -> +1
A becomes Y -> +24 (or -2, wrapping around the alphabet)
B becomes C -> +1
L becomes J -> -2
E becomes F -> +1

The pattern seems to be alternating between adding 1, and subtracting 2. Let's consider it as +1, -2, +1, -2, +1 for simplicity.

Let's apply this to CHAIR:

C becomes D -> +1
H becomes F -> -2
A becomes B -> +1
I becomes G -> -2
R becomes S -> +1

Therefore, the code for CHAIR is DFBGS.

ONLY is LKIV, what does YLXQ mean?

• O becomes L -> -2
• N becomes K -> -2
• L becomes I -> -2
• Y becomes V -> -2

let's apply the reverse to YLXQ:

• Y + 2 -> B
• L + 2 -> O
• X + 2 -> A
• Q + 2 -> T

Therefore YLXQ means BOAT

TWO becomes VYQ

• • V (22nd letter) shifted back two positions becomes T (20th letter)
  • Y (25th letter) shifted back two positions becomes W (23rd letter)
  • Q (17th letter) shifted back two positions becomes O (15th letter)

  Therefore, if the code for TWO is VYQ, then the code for ONE is QPG.
