  1. Hello everyone and welcome to today's class.
  2. Today's lesson for of unit one journeys.
  3. I am monsieur and today we're going to learn about
  4. suffixes, mainly about able and able, able and able.
  5. Yeah, before we begin let's define suffixes, suffixes can be
  6. defined as a group of letters that we add to
  7. the end of the world.
  8. These suffixes can change the meaning or the purpose of
  9. the word april and able.
  10. These two suffixes they sound very familiar and they share
  11. a mean meaning, both what used or when added to
  12. a word will have the same meaning and effect to
  13. the world.
  14. They both mean able to be.
  15. So if I say read the bill which ends with
  16. an A B L E, it means able to read
  17. if I use yeah, a bowl with audio which makes
  18. it audible.
  19. It means able to be heard the same meaning.
  20. But in one word we used able A B L
  21. E and the other word.
  22. We used the ball, I B L E.
  23. one of the distinctions between the two is that April
  24. is used with a variety of words.
  25. And these words outnumber the words that are used with
  26. bible cable is used with a limited number of words.
  27. A great tip to know if to use Abel or
  28. Abel is to try to take out the suffix if
  29. you're left with a complete word, then it's able but
  30. if not meaning it won't stand as a word on
  31. its own without the suffix it more.
  32. It's most likely to be able.
  33. Let's look at the example at the end of the
  34. slide terrible.
  35. It ends with able.
  36. So if we take out the suffix bible, we're left
  37. with terror which is not a word.
  38. However with the word changeable which means able to be
  39. changed. Change is a word.
  40. Once we take out the suffix able this is another
  41. indicated. Look at further examples readable If we take out
  42. the suffix able we are left with read which is
  43. a complete word.
  44. If we apply this to the word acceptable and we
  45. remove the suffix able we are left with a complete
  46. word which is except the same goes for treatable.
  47. If we take out able we're left with treat a
  48. complete word.
  49. The same goes for changeable.
  50. When we take out the suffix able we're left with
  51. change dependable becomes dependent when we take out the suffix.
  52. However with words such as audible at the ball, horrible,
  53. tangible and feasible.
  54. If you take out the suffix the bible we're left
  55. with incomplete words were left with either odd and or
  56. tank and fees.
  57. This is a list of the most commonly used words
  58. that take the suffix able try to keep a note
  59. or memorize these words because you are most likely to
  60. be using these as I said before.
  61. More words take the suffix able with an A instead
  62. of able and this is what makes it easier because
  63. you're if you're confused you're most likely to be using
  64. able not able thank you for your attention
