Explanation:

To determine whether a word is in the front, middle, or back of a dictionary, we consider the alphabetical order. Words starting with letters earlier in the alphabet (e.g., A - M) are generally in the front, those with letters in the middle range (N - R) are in the middle, and those with letters towards the end (S - Z) are in the back.

Answer:

(1) front
(2) front
(3) front
