Root Explanation

Alphabeted → It is formed from "alphabet" (from Greek "alphabētos", which is derived from the first two letters of the Greek alphabet, "alpha" and "beta") and the suffix "-ed" (indicating a completed action). The word "alphabeted" means to arrange or organize something in alphabetical order.

Memory Tip

Think of the Greek letters 'alpha' and 'beta' that make up the 'alphabet' — when something is 'alphabeted', it is organized in the order of these letters.
