Question

put the words in alphabetical order.
zoo greedy friendly forget
submit

Explanation:

Alphabetical order follows the sequence of the English alphabet. Compare the first letters of each word first; if first letters match, compare the second, and so on.

1. "friendly" starts with 'f', which is the earliest letter here.
2. "forget" also starts with 'f'; compare the second letters: 'o' (from forget) comes after 'r' (from friendly)? No, correction: second letter of friendly is 'r', second letter of forget is 'o' — 'o' comes before 'r', so "forget" is next after "friendly"? No, wait: first letter 'f' for both. Second letter: friendly is 'r', forget is 'o'. 'o' is earlier than 'r', so "forget" comes before "friendly"? No, no: f-r-i-e-n-d-l-y vs f-o-r-g-e-t. Second letter: o (position 15) is before r (position 18). So "forget" is first among the F words, then "friendly". Then "greedy" (starts with 'g', next after 'f'), then "zoo" (starts with 'z', last).

Answer:

1. forget
2. friendly
3. greedy
4. zoo
