Select the odd word and write the option number as answer:
Show Hint
Watch for near-homophones or look-alike spellings in "odd one out" questions—Diner vs. Dinar changes the category completely.
- Lek
- Zloty
- Diner
- Drachma
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Identify the common category: Items (1), (2), (4), and (5) are all names of national currencies.
- Lek — currency of Albania.
- Zloty — currency of Poland.
- Drachma — historical currency of Greece (pre-euro).
- Real — currency of Brazil.
Contrast with option (3): Diner (spelled with an e) is not a currency; it is an English word meaning a person who dines or a type of casual restaurant. (A currency spelled Dinar would fit the pattern, but that is not what is written.)
Therefore, the only item not belonging to the currency category is (3) Diner.
\[ \boxed{\text{Odd word: (3) Diner}} \]
