Common suffixes include "-al", "-ful", "-ity", "-ive", "-ment", "-ous", "-tion", and "-y", which can form nouns, adjectives, or verbs depending on the suffix.

    Suffixes are letter groups that are added to the end of a base
    word or root. They frequently signify the part of the speech
    and sometimes add meaning.
