Használati minta:
[-ness] added to [adjective]
Add -ness to the adjective “kind” to make the noun “kindness.”
Add hozzá a „kind” melléknévhez a -ness képzőt, így megkapod a „kindness” főnevet.
The ending -ness often turns an adjective into a noun, as in “dark” and “darkness.”
A -ness végződés gyakran főnévvé alakítja a melléknevet, például a „dark” szóból „darkness” lesz.
In “happiness,” -ness names the state of being happy.
Példák tanulóknak
Kind + -ness = kindness.
„kind” + „-ness” = „kindness”.
Happy becomes happiness.
A „happy” szóból „happiness” lesz.
Gyakori hiba:
Learners sometimes choose -ity instead of -ness (e.g., *happyity*). Watch spelling changes: happy → happiness (y → i), busy → business (irregular).
