Wait — let’s check:
We have: `.`, `elephant`, `The`, `big`, `is`
But “The big elephant is.” is incomplete — it lacks an object or complement.

Let’s check if all words can be used:
- `The`, `elephant`, `is`, `big`, `.`
Yes! So the correct order is:
The elephant is big.
👉 Fill in the boxes:
The | elephant | is | big | .
