The ending to the word predict would be predictable
MAVERICK [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The proper ending for "predict" is "able" --> predictable.

Explanation:

The suffixes -able and -ible are of similar use and meaning. Adding them to the end of a word means the thing or person we refer to is "capable of being" that word. For instance:

  • If you know nature well enough, the weather becomes predictable to you.

The weather, in the sentence above, is "capable of being predicted".

Usually, we add -able to full words: enjoy - enjoyable; rely - reliable. We add -ible to words that are not complete and cannot be used on their own: poss - possible; ed - edible.

How can the sentence be rewritten so it is in the subjunctive mood?
prohojiy [21]

The sentence that is rewritten in the subjunctive mood is option A) I wish I were going to the movies with you this Friday”

The subjunctive mood is used in formal written English to express unreal conditions, suggestions or wishes. In this case, the example is related to wishes and it is formed by the word “wish” and the verb in the subjunctive voice is “were going”. As we can see the auxiliary “were” does not keep the same form of the person “I” because it is in the subjunctive mood.  

Option B is not in the subjunctive mood, it is using an indicative mood

Option C is not in the subjunctive mood since it is a question in the present tense.
