Word formation from letters of GENERALIZATION Which ONE of the following words cannot be formed from “GENERALIZATION”, using each letter at most once?

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: LIZARD

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
We must detect the lone impossible option under letter-availability constraints.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Source: GENERALIZATION contains letters including G,E,N,E,R,A,L,I,Z,A,T,I,O,N (Z×1, L×1; no D).


Concept / Approach:
Look for any option demanding a letter not present or in excessive quantity.



Step-by-Step Solution:
“NOTE”: N,O,T,E ⇒ present.“GOAT”: G,O,A,T ⇒ present.“RAITION” (a misspelt “RATION/RATIONE”?), but letters R,A,I,T,I,O,N are available ⇒ formable.“LIZARD”: L,I,Z,A,R,D ⇒ requires D, which is not available ⇒ cannot be formed.



Verification / Alternative check:
Scan GENERALIZATION to confirm the absence of D.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They are formable given the letters.



Common Pitfalls:
Assuming every common consonant (like D) is present; it is not.



Final Answer:
LIZARD
