Which word does not belong with the others?

tent
igloo
cabin
cave

The correct answer is: cave

The word "cave" does not belong with the others because it refers to a naturally occurring underground space, whereas the other options—tent, igloo, and cabin—represent man-made shelters. Tents are temporary structures made from fabric, igloos are built from snow blocks, and cabins are wooden structures typically used as homes or retreats. This distinction highlights that while tent, igloo, and cabin are designed and constructed by people for the purpose of habitation, a cave is a natural formation that humans do not create.
