    Question

    Direction: Choose the correct one and add.
    In the word “maintenance” what is the suffix?

    1. ance and ence    
    2. enan    
    3. enance    
    4. None    

    hintHint:

    A suffix is a letter or group of letters, for example '-ly' or '- ness', which is added to the end of a word in order to form a different word, often of a different word class. For example, the suffix '-ly' is added to ' quick' to form 'quickly'.

    The correct answer is: ance and ence

      The correct answer is 'A', Ance or Ence. As we know the work of suffixes is to add a letter after a word to make it more meaningful. When we added 'Ance or Ence' to 'Maintain' we got a new meaningful word, Maintainance/Maintainence.
