Answer 1

Words in Words in the dictionary are placed in alphabetical order
So how do we find a specific word? The first thing is to remember the alphabet, do not you think?
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTU VWXYZ
If we look, there are neither CH, nor RR nor LL, because they are not letters, but representations of certain phonemes (sounds), in particular situations, by the union of two letters. What if the word starts just by LL or CH (it is impossible to start from RR because, as you remember, it is only used to represent the strong R sound between vowels)? For very simple, we will follow the method that we will use with the other words: search letter by letter of the word. It is about building the word letter by letter. An example will make it easier to understand, and if you have a dictionary next to it to follow the instructions.
Suppose I want to find the meaning of the word SCHOOL.
I go to the dictionary and look for the first letter of the word: EWhen I am in the letter E, I look for the words that begin with ES, that will be after those that begin with ER and before those that do it for ET.When I found the words that start with ES, I look for those that start with ESC, which will be after those that start with ESB and before those that do ESD.When I am in the words that start with ESC, I look for the ones that start with ESCU (remember that they are always in alphabetical order).Then, being in ESCU, I look for ESCUE, then ESCUEL and, finally, SCHOOL.

And, finally, remember that the dictionary not only serves to find the meaning of the words, but to know how they are written correctly.
