"If you were from the opposite village, what would you then say if I'd ask you if the village to your right is the truth-village?"
If his answer is "yes", then the right one is the truth-village.
If his answer is "no", then the no one is the truth-village.

If he IS from village A, then he should imagine what he would say if he WERE from village B.
Example:
Let's say the village on the right would be the liar village and I ask the question from my earlier post.
Let's say he's from the truth village.
Now he imagines that he'd be from the liar village and realizes that, as a liar, he'd answer my question with "yes".
And because he is a truth-teller, he will indeed tell the truth and say "yes" (in the sense of: If I'd be from the liar village I'd lie to you and say "yes")
Let's say he's from the liar village.
Now he imagines that he'd be from the truth village and realizes that, as a truth-teller, he'd say "no".
But because he is a liar, he will lie and say "yes" (in the sense of: If I'd be from the other village I'd say the truth, which would be "no", BUT I'll lie to you now and say the opposite: "yes").
So in both cases the answer will be the same and thus allows me to distinguish the villages.
Yes to my question means: The one the right is the liar village.
No to my question means: The one the right is the truth village.
So it might not be the exact answer you were looking for, but it works nonetheless.^^
Maybe instead of "imagine you'd be from the other village" I guess I could've asked "What's the opposite of what you'd tell me?", but the end result is the same really:
Thuth-teller thinks: "I would've told him YES (as a truth), the opposite would be NO. And since I tell the truth I say NO."
Liar thinks: "I would've told him NO (as a lie), the opposite would be YES. But since I'm a liar, I'll still say NO."

Kind of like starting to program something and then going through the code to cut down on redundancy to achieve the same thing with as little code as possible.
Anyway, thx for revealing the expected answer.
