Question

Out of the following pairs of words which one is different from the rest?

• A. Mother: Father
• B. Aunt: Uncle
• C. Grandfather: Grandson
• D. Mother in law : Father in law

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Grandfather: Grandson

The odd one out is Grandfather : Grandson.

Reason

• Mother : Father, Aunt : Uncle, and Mother-in-law : Father-in-law are all pairs of the same generational level and represent direct gender counterparts (spouses or equivalent peers in the same family generation).

• Grandfather : Grandson represents a two-generation gap relationship (generational hierarchy) rather than a same-generation gender counterpart.
