Question

Four words have been given out of which three are alike in some manner, while one is different. Choose the odd one.

The correct answer is River

Odd Word Selection Reasoning

The question requires identifying the word that does not belong with the others based on a common characteristic.

Analyzing Word Categories

We need to find the pattern connecting three words and identify the outlier:

  • Bottle: A container, typically for liquids.
  • Bucket: A container, often used for carrying liquids or solids.
  • Jar: A container, typically made of glass, for storing food items.
  • River: A natural, flowing watercourse.

Reasoning:

  • 'Bottle', 'Bucket', and 'Jar' are all man-made containers designed to hold substances.
  • 'River' is a natural water body and does not fit the category of a container.

Therefore, 'River' is the odd word out.
