Word noun comes from the Latin nomen meaning is names. An object is the name of an object. everything that there has a name, if you can see it or not.

A noun is a word used to name a person, animal, place, thing, and abstract idea. Nouns are usually the first words which small children learn.

2.      Verb

The word comes from the Latin verb-Verbum-meaning words. Verbs are words that contain elements of work which "has been moderate, being" done (doing, being or having).

The verb is perhaps the most important part of the sentence. A verb or compound verb asserts something about the subject of the sentence and expresses actions, events, or states of being.

C.    SUMMARY

In linguistics, a suffix (also sometimes called a postfix or ending) is an affix which is placed after the stem of a word. Common examples are case endings, which indicate the grammatical case of nouns or adjectives, and verb endings, which form the conjugation of verbs. Particularly in the study of Semitic languages, a suffix is called an afformative, as they can alter the form of the words to which they are fixed. In Indo-European studies, a distinction is made between suffixes and endings (see Proto-Indo-European root).

Suffixes a can be change from :

a.       Adjective to Adverb of Manner

b.      Adjective to Verb

c.       Verb to Adjective

d.      Adjective to Noun

e.       Adjective to noun
