Pretest

Question 10 • English III

Which pair of words shares the same suffix?

Answer
A
angrily, angered
B
mistake, misery
C
enjoyable, teachable
D
disappoint, disrepair

Explanation

In “enjoyable” and “teachable,” the suffix “-able” is added to each base word: enjoy + able and teach + able. A suffix is a word part added to the end of a word. The other pairs do not share a suffix: “angrily” ends in “-ly,” while “angered” ends in “-ed.”
