Question

put the words in alphabetical order.
own, butter, borrow, being
submit

Explanation:

Alphabetical order is determined by comparing the first letter of each word, then the second if the first letters match, and so on. First, all words start with "b" except "own", so "own" is last. Among the "b" words: "being" (2nd letter "e") comes first, then "borrow" (2nd letter "o"), then "butter" (2nd letter "u").

Answer:

being, borrow, butter, own
