From what length is a "string" a string? Is "a" a string?
---------- Post updated at 11:40 ---------- Previous update was at 11:40 ----------
Does case matter?

As a starting point:
Code:
awk '{for (i=1; i<=NF; i++) for (j=i+1; j<=NF; j++) if ($i == $j) next}1' file

The string length was between 3 to 12 characters. ( words which were identical ).
I tried your solution and it works like a charm. Thank you Rudi

awk 'BEGIN{IGNORECASE = 1} {for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){for(j=1;j<=NF;j++){if($j==$i){A[$i]++;}};if(A[$i]>1){for(i in A){delete A[i];next}}};print;for(i in A){delete A[i]}}' Input_file
Output will be as follows.

Thanks R. Singh. It worked but seems to have taken some extra lines out. I believe Rudi's solution matched the patterns/words exactly since some words were similar spelling but different.
