Goddess of love and beauty. Mars if the fourth planet from the Sun and the
second smallest planet. It is named after the Roman God of war. The fifth planet
from the Sun is Jupiter. It is also the largest planet. The Romans named the

from the Sung and the second largest planet. It is named after the Roman God
of agriculture. Neptune is the eighth planet from the Sun in the Solar System. It

Ex 4a: Add suffixes –ful or –less to the words in the box. Note that some
words can use either suffix
When we want to form an adjective, we can add suffixes –ful or –
less to a noun or a verb
- ful means 'full of’ or 'having the quality of the noun’
Example: care  careful
help  helpful
- less often means ‘without’
Example: care  careless
home  homeless
1. Weight  Weightless
2. Water  Waterless
3. Beauty  Beautiful
4. Wonder  Wonderful
5. Resource  Resourceless/ Resourceful
6. Air  Airless
 Pronunciation
Stress in words ending in –ful or - less

When we add –ful or –less to nouns or verbs to form adjectives, the

stress of the words remain unchanged.
Example:
‘water  ‘waterless
‘hope  ‘hopeless/ ‘hopeful
for’get  for’getful
Ex 5: Put the stress in the corret place in the words. Then listen and
check

thoughtless meaningful helpless

meaningless helpful thoughtful

useless plentiful useful
