NIGHT

This question was previously asked in
SSC CHSL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (21-Nov-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

HINGE

The target word is NIGHT, whose distinct letters are N, I, G, H and T.

A word can form NIGHT only if it contains every one of these five letters at least once; check each option for all of N, I, G, H, T.

THING contains T, H, I, N, G — all five letters of NIGHT are present, so NIGHT can be formed from it.

HINGE contains H, I, N, G, E — it has H, I, N, G but the letter T is missing, so NIGHT CANNOT be formed from HINGE.

KNIGHT contains K, N, I, G, H, T — all of N, I, G, H, T are present, so NIGHT can be formed from it.

THRINGE contains T, H, R, I, N, G, E — all of N, I, G, H, T are present, so NIGHT can be formed from it as well.

Only HINGE lacks a required letter (T), making it the word from which NIGHT cannot be formed.

Hence the correct alternative is HINGE.
