Deciphering a Word Puzzle: Logic, Perception, and HR Insights

Hi all,

It's a 7-letter word. If we remove 1 letter from it, it remains the same.

If we remove 2 letters from it, it remains the same.

If we remove 3 letters from it, it remains the same.

If we remove all the letters from it, still it remains the same.

What is it?

Hi,

I gather answers from your replies to others, but in my opinion, "PATANAHI" is the most logical answer. If any word is removed, it still looks like "patanahi"; after erasing any word, it remains the same, "patanahi."

Take care,

Hi Indu,

I got the answer even before I opened the message fully. It was quite simple. :-)

Postbox

It will always remain the same even if you remove all the letters...

Nothing

Nothing will remain the same if you remove 1, 2, 3, 4... or any number of letters... it will always change... 😂

The answer is "MAILBOX"... no matter how many letters you remove from it, it still remains a mailbox.

"Post Box" is two words. It is not "one seven-letter word," as suggested by you.

Please let this site be a forum for smart HR professionals by excluding such juvenile puzzles that are not even correct to begin with.

See all, logical thinking.

POSTBOX, it is one word. It is also one of the software interview questions too.

Dear VA,

It was during the humor session, and one of the software interview questions that I attended. Then that smart HR only told me to use some logical thinking like that. OK?

You can take any number of letters which are posted by someone else; it remains the same.

Hi all,

Come on, guys, think logically... it's very simple. She is not talking about letters in the word. She is talking about the letters we write, yaar. Even if you remove all the letters from the postbox, IT REMAINS THE SAME...!!

Am I right, INDHU...??? :D :D :D

Thank you,
SAI... I'm new to this site.

Interesting. You have to explain it clearly. It's a word, "POSTBOX," but the logic refers to the noun, not the word as in the actual postbox for receiving letters. If you carry out an action of taking actual mail letters (not alphabetical letters) from it, it remains a postbox. Simple but complex. Get the logic twisted.

Thanks, Imoisili

I have tried but am not able to get the answer. I would appreciate it if you could revert to me with the answer.
