putting things in a particular order or position, or organizing plans or details for something.
From Old French 'arranger' (ar- 'to' + ranger 'to arrange'), from Frankish 'hring' (ring, row). The word entered Middle English meaning to put in order or position.
The word 'arrange' comes from putting things 'in a row' or 'in a ring'—Germanic tribes arranged people in circles or lines for meetings, and we still use the word for any careful ordering!
