Correct Option: 4

Given codes:

\newline

'li be pee' = 'roses are blue'

\newline

'sik hee' = 'red flowers'

\newline

'pee mit hee' = 'flowers are vegetables'

Analyzing common words:

\newline

In 'pee mit hee' and 'li be pee':

\newline

'pee' appears in both and means 'are'

Analyzing 'sik hee':

\newline

We know it means 'red flowers'

\newline

And from 'pee mit hee' we know 'hee' means 'flowers'

\newline

Therefore 'sik' must mean 'red'

Therefore, 'sik' stands for 'red'.
