. How many such pairs of letters are there in the word TERMINATE each of which has as many letters between them in the word as in the English alphabet ?

• Ans:- 2
  There are actually two such pairs according to me.
  one is TR .see in the word "terminate" TR has 1 letter (=E) between them. and in the english alphabet T and R has one letter between them, i.e. S.
  Another pair is IE (second E), there are 3 letters (N,A,T) between them and in english alphabet also there are 3 letter between I and E(=F,G,H).

• TERMINATE
  I saw no pairs of letters with the same number of letters between them as in the English alphabet. If working backwards counts, that answer would change:
  The ending E is a pair with I, the same distance as in the alphabet.
  
  Conclusion: if only working forwards (which makes sense to me), there are no pairs that have the same distance between them in the word "terminate" as in the English alphabet.
