Maybe this is stupid but here's the challenge.
Find words where all the letters are in alphabetical order and where there are no repeating letters.
You may post three or four words.
If there are no posts for more than a half an hour,
post again.
Don't post any words that have already been given.
I will start with the word "hint".

"Below" is the first one that popped to mind.

"Below" is the first one that popped to mind.
That wasn't on my list, so I will add it.

Also most of the words that I wrote down are 3 or 4 letters, so yours is a good one

I had begins and there is another five letter verb which will be six letters when you add an s.
I didn't have adept or adopt.

The list of 3 and 4 letter words is quite long as I said.

There aren't many 5 or 6 letter words.

I have feeling 6 letters may be the most.

Biopsy.  I think 6 might be the limit as well.

If there is a 7 letter word, it probably starts with a prefix like de-, ad-, or ab-

Case in point... apparently "deglory" is a word.
