Which word does not belong?
- Decide
- Defer
- Conclude
- Establish
Correct Answer

A. Defer

Explanation

The word "defer" does not belong because it is the only word that means to delay or postpone a decision or action. The other three words - decide, conclude, and establish - all refer to making a decision or reaching a resolution. Therefore, "defer" stands out as the odd one out in this group.

Correct Answer

A. Hoard

Explanation

The words "Distribute," "Share," and "Bestow" all have the common theme of giving or sharing something with others. However, "Hoard" stands out as it means to accumulate or keep something for oneself without sharing or giving it away. Therefore, "Hoard" does not belong with the other words.
