There are two primary types of suffixes in English: 1  A derivational suffix (such as the addition of-ly to an adjective to form an adverb) indicates what type of word it is. 2  An inflectional suffix (such as the addition of-s to a noun to form a plural) tells something about the word's grammatical behavior.
Description: Suffixes are attached to the end of words and have an important impact on a word's meaning. Some suffixes can change the grammatical function of vocabulary by transforming a noun into an adjective or forming verbs from nouns. With many examples of common suffixes and their meanings, you will see how suffixes can show grammatical tenses, plural nouns, and comparisons in comparative and superlative forms.
