Co-relation or Analogy in the English alphabet refers to identifying the pattern between the first pair of letters or words and applying the same logic to the second pair.
Explanation Step by Step
Steps to solve Alphabet Co-relation:
Identify the positional value of letters (A=1, B=2, etc.).
Check for operations like addition, subtraction, or multiplication on these values.
Look for mirror pairs (A-Z, B-Y).

Using letter positions and logic-based transitions to find missing terms.
Examples
Example 1
F : 12 :: L : ? Logic: Position of F is 6; 6 x 2 = 12.
Answer: Position of L is 12; 12 x 2 = 24.
Example 2
AD : 5 :: BE : ? Logic: A(1) + D(4) = 5.
Answer: B(2) + E(5) = 7.
Tricks and Shortcuts
Use the word "EJOTY" to remember positions in multiples of 5 (E=5, J=10, O=15, T=20, Y=25).
Common Mistakes
Confusing the rank from left-to-right with right-to-left. Failing to identify prime number positions of letters.
