D. <em>uncharitable</em>.
The suffix <em>-able</em>, borrowed from Old French and originally from the Latin <em>-ābilis</em> (meaning "worthy of being acted upon"), can have different meanings.
The most common one is "fit/liable to be (done)," as in:
- <em>likeable</em> - fit to be liked
- <em>washable</em> - fit to be washed
- <em>degradable</em> - liable to be degraded.
This, however, does not apply to <em>comfortable</em>. Another meaning of <em>-able</em>, however, is "giving, or inclined to," as in:
- <em>comfortable</em> - giving comfort
- <em>(un)charitable</em> - (not) inclined to charity.

If you are new to Brainly, thats ok, but know that according to the honor code you can’t have someone else write an essay or summary or some kind of writing piece and use it yourself and act like it’s your own work. I will give you this though, whatsoever, but please write it in your own words.
