The correct answer is
Plain
Word Arrangement in Dictionary Order
To find the word that comes second in dictionary order among Player, Place, Plane, and Plain, we compare them letter by letter.
Comparing the Words
- All four words begin with the letters 'Pl'.
- The third letter for all words is 'a'.
- We need to compare the fourth letter of each word:
- Place: The fourth letter is 'c'.
- Plain: The fourth letter is 'i'.
- Plane: The fourth letter is 'n'.
- Player: The fourth letter is 'y'.
- Arranging these fourth letters alphabetically gives us: 'c', 'i', 'n', 'y'.
- Therefore, the dictionary order of the words is:
- Place
- Plain
- Plane
- Player
Identifying the Second Word
According to the determined dictionary order, the word that comes second is Plain.
