In/Out #3

It’s true for unforgettable, but not for memorable.
It’s true for bad but not for naughty.
It’s true for homecoming but not for prom.


Rikand’s post explaining the rules:

Rikand wrote: »

I'm 'in'. The rest of you are 'out'.

As an 'in' I say statements of truth. You cannot guess directly at what this truth is, you must make statements like mine, and I tell you whether they are my truth or not. NOTE: MY truth is consistent and will not change through the challenge.

IF you get enough 'truths' to convince me you know my 'truth' - usually 3 statements in a row that are correct - you become 'in', and have the same powers as me - but all 'in' people stick to the same truth, as set by me.

You need to look for patterns in this so when I say 'X is true, but Y is false' you need to work out what rule or pattern is true for X (and all following statements), but not true for Y

Example #1:
It's true for yesterday but not for last week
It's true for submarine but not for submersible
It's true for revolution but not for revolt
(Answer, never stated explicitly: They are words from the titles of tracks by the Beatles )

Example #2:
It's true for book but not for literature
It's true for seen but not for visible
It's true for bookkeeper 3 times over, but not for librarian
(Answer, never stated explicitly: The word contains a two consecutive same letters)


So, the answer can be about word patterns, or from 'lists' from the outside word, or in fact any reasonable construct/pattern involving words and letters.

PLEASE DO NOT EVER SAY OUTRIGHT WHAT YOU THINK THE PATTERN IS.

Okay, this is at easy level, and is:

It's true for Die but not for Death
It's true for Never but not for Always
It's true for View but not for Scene

(Now, if you have an idea what it is, please say it in the form 'It's true for A, but not for B'. I will confirm if it's correct or not.)
