Based on the alphabetical order of these letters, we can arrange them – L a mbast, L a nguish, L a ughter, L e gacy, L i ghten, L i ghtly. Step 3: Compare the third letter of (La m bast, La n guish, La u ghter) and the sixth letter of (Light e n, Light l y). Lambast will come before Languish and Laughter in the sequence as m comes before n , and u in the alphabetical system and Languish will come before Laughter.
