Correct answer!
Comment:
'Orient' is shorter and simpler than 'orientate' – it's also strictly the correct form.
'Orientate' is often mistakenly used because the noun is 'orientation'. By extension the verb from 'implementation' would be 'implementate' not 'implement' ('implement' is correct!)
Wrong answer, try again!
