StopLearn Team Staff answered 10 months ago Sure! Here are some examples of suffixes, along with their base or root words and the new words formed:
| Suffix | Base/Root Word | New Word |
|——–|—————-|———-|
| -er | teach | teacher |
| -able | comfort | comfortable |
| -less | care | careless |
| -ful | hope | hopeful |
| -ing | run | running |
| -est | tall | tallest |
| -ment | govern | government |
| -ize | modern | modernize |
| -tion | educate | education |
| -able | adapt | adaptable |
These examples demonstrate how suffixes can be added to base or root words to create new words with different meanings or grammatical functions.
