1st alphabet of 1st & 2nd word has a difference 1,
1st alphabet of 2nd & 3rd word has a difference 2,
1st alphabet of 3rd & 4th word has a difference 3,
so,1st alphabet of 4th & 5th word has a difference 4,
i,e. the 1st alphabet of 5th word is O.
Again,
2nd alphabet of 1st & 2nd word has a difference 2,
2nd alphabet of 2nd & 3rd word has a difference 3,
2nd alphabet of 3rd & 4th word has a difference 4,
So, the 2nd alphabet of 4th & 5th word has a difference 5,
i.e, the 2nd alphabet of 5th word is V.
thus next term is OV.
