Find the odd pair among the following options.

  • A.Millinery : Hats
  • B.Brewery : Alcohol
  • C.Stationery : Paper
  • D.Snobbery : Shoes

Answer: D

The odd pair is Snobbery : Shoes.

In the other pairs, the first word names the trade, place or goods connected with the second: millinery is the making and selling of hats, a brewery makes beer and other alcohol, and stationery is writing material such as paper.

Snobbery means looking down on others; it has nothing to do with shoes. The craft of making or mending shoes is cobbling (or shoemaking).
