CONFUSION ABOUT string

i have a confusion that id we write like this that String arr[ ]= {“apple”,“banana”,“mango”}; then what does it mean. does it mean that the whole word APPLE in assigned in the first bukcet of array or each bucket contains a single letter. But prateek bhaiya used the sentence-(if you want to arrange these STRINGS lexicographically…) thus again does it mean they are strings. please clarify

Hey Satvik, String arr[ ]= {“apple”,“banana”,“mango”}; this means this arr is an array of strings and here each bucket contains a string.
