〽️ Essential Suffixes 〽️
(Essential prefixes here)
➖ Strengthen your vocabulary by learning critical suffixes💪
➖ A suffix appears at the end of a word and modifies its meaning or part of speech❗️
✅ Memorize the following 🚩 suffixes to expand your vocabulary:
1️⃣ ABLE - capable of. E.g.:
a) speakable - capable of being spoken;
b) perishable - likely to spoil or decay;
2️⃣ ATION - action or process. E.g.:
a) exploration - act of exploring or investigating;
b) hesitation - act of pausing or delaying.
3️⃣ IOUS - characterized by. E.g.:
a) ambitious - having a strong desire to succeed;
b) victorious - having achieved a victory.
4️⃣ ISM - doctrine or religion. E.g.:
a) conservatism - doctrine of traditional practices;
b) monotheism - religious belief in a single deity.
5️⃣ IST - practioner. E.g.:
a) novelist - writer of novels;
b) scientist - practioner of science.
6️⃣ LESS - without. E.g.:
a) flawless - without any imperfections;
b) regardless - without concern for the situation.
7️⃣ NESS - state or quality. E.g.:
a) happiness;
b) wilderness - uninhabited and uncultivated region.
8️⃣ OUS - resembling. E.g.:
a) dangerous - involving possible harm;
b) instantaneous - happening in a single moment.
✅ For notes 📝 :
🔅 Suffixes can't stand alone as their own words, but they can significantly change a word's meaning.
🔅 They can also change the grammatical form of a word.
For instance, the word friend is a noun. But when the suffix -ly is added to it, it becomes and adjective: friendly.
🔅 There are fewer common suffixes than there are common prefixes, and learning common suffixes will help you figure out more complex vocabulary words.
🔅 The word suffix derives from the ancient Latin sub, meaning subordinately and figere, meaning to fix. It entered English in the late 18th century from the modern Latin suffixum.
🔰 Some common suffixes are:
♦️ -ful: full of
example: sorrowful
♦️ -al: relating to
example: presidential
♦️ -ion: act or process
example: maturation
