Question

    Three of the following words are alike in some manner and hence form a group. Which word does NOT belong to that group? (The words must be considered as meaningful English words and must not be grouped based on the number of letters/number of consonants/vowels in the word)

    A Clarinet Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Flute Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Piano Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Piccolo Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The common characteristic among the words seems to be that they are all musical instruments. Clarinet, Flute, and Piccolo are all wind instruments, while the Piano is a stringed instrument. So, the word that does NOT belong to the group is "Piano." It stands out from the others because it is not a wind instrument; instead, it is a stringed instrument.
