Question

Based on the English alphabetical order, three of the following four letter-cluster pairs are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which letter-cluster pair DOES NOT belong to that group? (Note: The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter cluster)

A.

NR - MQ

B.

EI - DH

C.

RV - QU

D.

XZ - TL

Correct option is D

Logic: ​Each letter pair has a difference of +4 in alphabetical positions.
Let's check options:
Option A: NR - MQ
N +4  →R
M +4 → Q
Option B: EI - DH 
E +4 → I
D +4 → H
Option C: RV - QU
R +4 → V
Q +4 → U
​Option D: XZ - TL
X +2 → Z
T -8 → L
So, Option D (XZ - TL) does NOT follow that.
Thus, the correct option is: (d)
