Adjektivendungen: -ful, -less, -y, -ous, -al
Diese Endungen machen aus Substantiven (und einigen Verben) Adjektive.
- -ful bedeutet "mit" oder "voller": useful, careful, helpful
- -less bedeutet "ohne": useless, careless, homeless
- -y ist üblich bei Wetter und alltäglichen Eigenschaften: sunny, windy, dirty
- -ous bedeutet "mit viel von": dangerous, famous, nervous
- -al bedeutet "verbunden mit": traditional, national, musical
Viele Wörter nehmen sowohl -ful als auch -less an, also lies den ganzen Satz: useful ist positiv, useless ist negativ. Beachte, dass -ful nur ein l hat. Achte auf die Schreibweise: ein abschließendes -e fällt oft weg (fame → famous, noise → noisy), -y wird zu -i (beauty → beautiful, mystery → mysterious), und ein kurzer Vokal verdoppelt den letzten Konsonanten (sun → sunny).
