Introduction

Hello, everyone! Today, we’re going to learn about ordering related words based on their meanings. This is an important skill because it helps us understand the connections between words and how they can be used in different situations.

What Are Related Words?

Related words are words that have similar meanings or are connected in some way. For example, the words happy, joyful, and cheerful are related because they all describe positive feelings.

Why Order Related Words?

Ordering related words helps us:

  • Understand their meanings better.
