The word "BRIGHTER" has two pairs of letters that meet the condition:
1. "H" and "T" have two letters ("I" and "G") between them in the word, and also two letters ("I" and "G") between them in the alphabet.
2. "G" and "T" have two letters ("H" and "I") between them in the word, and also two letters ("H" and "I") between them in the alphabet.
