πŸ”΅ English Lab | Part 3 Tip – Adjective Endings
⚑ In Part 3 (Word Formation), adjectives are a common test point. The tricky part? Choosing the right ending.
Examples you’ll often see:
  • -able / -ible β†’ reliable, responsible
  • -ous β†’ dangerous, ambitious
  • -ful β†’ useful, careful
  • -less β†’ careless, hopeless
πŸ“ Exam Coaching
  • The endings look similar, but they are not interchangeable.
  • -able / -ible is a classic trap: sometimes both words exist but with different meanings (dependable vs. responsible).
  • Examiners love to test if you can recall the exact form quickly under pressure.
  • One wrong letter = lost mark.
πŸ‘‰ Poll time:
Which ending do you find most confusing?
πŸ”Ή -able / -ible
πŸ”Ή -ous
πŸ”Ή -ful
πŸ”Ή -less
