Thanks a ton all of you.

They have four letters in common but nothing else.

Hi Asnaa, these are very different words. Short functions as an adjective and typically opposite to long. Sort can be a verb as indicated below, or you can use as "sort of", which is the same as kind of I am sort of tired today I am kind of tired today Cheers

Sort and short are two completely different words. "Sort" is most commonly used as a verb, like "I need to sort these papers" meaning to categorize or put in order. "Short" is most commonly used as an adjective, like "She is short." meaning not tall/below average. Each has other meanings but these are the most common.
