Word Meaning: Spot the Odd One Out

Two words usually share a semantic category; the third is unrelated. Identify the unrelated word.

Categories and Relationships

  • Semantic categories: colors, animals, furniture, etc.
  • Functional relationships: tool vs. not-a-tool.

Rapid Elimination

Group the two that naturally go together; the remaining word is likely the answer.

Practice Tips

  • Build category familiarity with frequent sets (colors, animals).
  • Ignore spelling length; focus on meaning only.
