@All
Yes. The answer is Speech:Dumb.
Sometimes you may think - What can't 'language:deaf' be the answer ?
It should be like Sound:Deaf not as Language:Deaf.
Because,
A blind can't see Light.
A dumb can't speak.
A deaf can't hear sound.
Hope this will help to clear your doubts if any. Have a nice day!

Light is the opposite of dark so if he said light that means that in order to get a dark color we should blend it with another color.
So if he said that the answer is speech: dumb that is probably because speeches are by smart people and the opposite of smart is dumb.

Option A is 100% right.
Blind people cannot see anything especially light.
Also dumb cannot able to speak anything so speech is right answer.
In case of deaf, language is wrong option while it is sound instead of language then deaf will be right also.

For Blind, Light has no meaning. Similarly, giving a speech to a dumb has no meaning.
Deaf can't listen a language but can read a language.

Through light we can see. Blind people can't see. In similar way speech can be used to talk dumb people can't talk.

Blind is always in a state opposite to light, similarly the dumb is always in a state opposite to speech.

It can also be like this - a blind doesnt knows what light is and a deaf doesn't knows what language is.

Similarly opposite word of speech is dumb.
So answer is A.

This doesn't make sense to me. A lot of dumb people still have the ability to speak and give speeches.
