Which word does not belong with the others?

  1. Greek

  2. Acrylic

  3. Latin

  4. Arabic

The correct answer is: Acrylic

The answer is based on the categories that each word represents. Greek, Latin, and Arabic are all languages spoken around the world and are associated with specific cultures and histories. These languages are part of human communication and have a significant impact on literature, philosophy, and science. On the other hand, acrylic refers to a type of synthetic polymer, often used in paints, fabrics, and various materials. It does not fit into the category of languages like the other choices do. Therefore, the word acrylic stands out as it represents a material rather than a language, making it the word that does not belong with the others in the list.
