Which option represents the correct order of the given words as they would appear in an English dictionary? 1. Mimic 2. Million 3. Minaret 4. Millstone 5. Mimicry
2,4,1,5,3
The correct order of the words in an English dictionary is 2, 4, 1, 5, 3. Let's analyze each word and its alphabetical position:
- Million: This word starts with 'M' and is followed by 'i'.
- Millstone: This also starts with 'M' and is followed by 'i', however, it has 'll' after 'i' making it come after 'Million'.
- Mimic: This word is next in alphabetical order, following 'Millstone'.
- Mimicry: This follows 'Mimic' as it's a derivative and only differs by the suffix '-ry'.
- Minaret: This completes the sequence. It's the last word alphabetically because of 'n' following 'M' and 'i'.
Therefore, considering the alphabetical order, the sequence is Million (2), Millstone (4), Mimic (1), Mimicry (5), and Minaret (3). This corresponds to option 2, 4, 1, 5, 3.
