Read the given sentence and fill in the blanks with the appropriate verb suffix.
Emma went to the tailor to ______ (short) her long dress.

  1. Shorting 
  2. Shorten
  3. Shortify

hintHint:

Verb suffix refers to the additional letter or group of letters attached to a word to make it function like a verb. This extra attachment has no meaning in itself.

The correct answer is: Shorten


    The correct answer is "Shorten".
    Here, Emma wanted to make her long dress shorter and to get this done, she visited the tailor. Among the given alternatives, only "Shorten" includes the main word "short" and the suffix (the additional group of letters) "en" to suggest the sense of making something different. Since the long dress is to be made different (short) by cutting and fitting it, the correct answer is "Shorten".
