ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Abecedar

Good day! Have you ever tried writing the alphabet and arranging them in order from A-Z? If you have, then you're already familiar with what abecedar is. Abecedar is a way of organizing the letters of the alphabet in a specific order.

Think of it this way: When you play with your toys, you may put them in different baskets or boxes depending on their purpose or where they belong. Abecedar is quite similar as it groups the letters of the alphabet together so that everyone can easily know and recognize them in order.

The order of the letters in abecedar is always the same: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z. This makes it much easier for kids to learn and remember the letters of the alphabet.

So whenever you see someone writing down the letters of the alphabet or singing the "ABC" song, they're using abecedar to help them remember the order of the letters.
