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)

1. Clarinet  
2. Flute  
3. Piano  
4. Piccolo

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Analyze the types of instruments each word represents:
   - *Clarinet*, *Flute*, and *Piccolo* are all **woodwind instruments**.
   - *Piano* is primarily a **string instrument** (strings struck by hammers) and also considered a percussion instrument.

2. Since the question asks to group based on meaningful categories (not letter counts), the three woodwind instruments form one group.

3. The *Piano* does not belong to this group as it is not a woodwind instrument.

**Answer:** (3) Piano
