alphabetical order / dictionary skills

Alphabetical order is the arrangement of words or items based on the order of the letters in the alphabet.

To put words in alphabetical order, compare the first letters of each word. If they are the same, compare the second letters, and so on.

Apple comes first because 'a' is the first letter in the alphabet.

A dictionary is a book or online resource that lists words in alphabetical order along with their meanings.

A dictionary can help you find the meaning of words, how to pronounce them, and how to use them in sentences.

If a word is 'before' another word, it comes earlier in the alphabetical list.

The first letter of the alphabet is 'A'.

The last letter of the alphabet is 'Z'.

You look at the second letter of each word to determine which comes first.

The missing letter is C.
