There are two tribes in Mars, Lie tribe and Truth Tribe.

Lie tribe always speaks lie, True tribe always speaks truth.

You meet three mars people and ask

From First Person: What tribe you belong to?, he replies something in his language which you don’t understand.

Second person tells that he is saying that he belongs to Lie Tribe.

Third person says that second person is lying.

What tribe does the third person belong to?

    If 1st person belongs to Truth tribe, he wud tell the truth that I belong to truth tribe,
    And in 2nd scenario if 1st person belongs to Lie tribe then he’ll lie and would say I belong to Truth tribe.
    So in both scenarios he wud say the same thing,
    that means the second was person was lying,
    which implies that the third person was telling the Truth..
    So, the third person belongs to Truth tribe!

    so the answer is Truth Tribe.

    Nobody ever says they belong to the lie tribe–both liars and truthtellers will claim to belong to the truth tribe.  Therefore, the second person is lying.  Since that matches what the third person said, the third person belongs to the truth tribe.
