Identify Word with Alphabetical Letter Order
To find the word with its letters in alphabetical order, examine the sequence of letters in each option.
- Behind: The letters are B, e, h, i, n, d. The letter 'd' comes after 'n' alphabetically, so this word is not in order.
- Below: The letters are B, e, l, o, w. Checking the alphabetical sequence: 'b' < 'e' < 'l' < 'o' < 'w'. This word has its letters in alphabetical order.
- Beside: The letters are B, e, s, i, d, e. The letter 'i' comes before 's', and 'd' comes before 'i', breaking the alphabetical sequence.
- Between: The letters are B, e, t, w, e, e, n. While B, e, t, w are in order, the subsequent 'e' repeats and breaks the strict alphabetical progression.
Therefore, the only word where the letters are in continuous alphabetical order is 'Below'.
