बिल्कुल Hindi जैसा — 'बच्चों का खेल है यार'। जो काम इतना आसान हो कि बच्चा भी कर ले, वो child's play। Piece of cake और cakewalk का भी यही मतलब।
It is just like the Hindi line 'bachchon ka khel hai' (it's a children's game). A task so simple that even a child could do it is child's play. 'Piece of cake' and 'cakewalk' mean the same.
Exam note
अर्थ आता है: बहुत आसान काम। Herculean task (दुष्कर कार्य), hard nut to crack और arduous (श्रमसाध्य) उल्टे अर्थ में आते हैं।
The tested meaning is a very easy task. 'Herculean task', 'hard nut to crack' and 'arduous' are offered as opposites.
