# Solution: Arrange in Order — Alphabet, Letter, Word, Sentence

This is a logical sequencing question based on the hierarchical structure of written language. We must arrange these components from smallest/simplest to largest/most complex.

Step 1: Identify the smallest unit

A Letter is the smallest, indivisible unit of written language. It is a single symbol (A, B, C, etc.) that cannot be broken down further into meaningful writing components.

Step 2: Identify what letters form

An Alphabet is a complete set or collection of all the letters used in a language (e.g., English alphabet has 26 letters). It is a collection of letters, making it larger in scope than a single letter.

Step 3: Identify the next larger unit

A Word is formed by combining multiple letters together (e.g., "cat" = c + a + t). Words are larger units built from letters.

Step 4: Identify the largest unit

A Sentence is the largest unit, formed by combining multiple words together with proper grammar and punctuation (e.g., "The cat is sleeping.").

Hierarchy Summary:

(Individual symbol → Complete set of symbols → Collection of letters → Collection of words)
