As a writer I find it hard sometimes to write unrestricted. I often feel as though I need to appeal to someone. This quote is very nice to hear because it kind of relaxes that thought of needing to be something instead of just being myself through my writing.
Answer:
1. action
2. failure
3. permission
4. loss
5. thought/thinking
Explanation:
Nominalization or nouning is the transformation of verbs into nouns. Most times, such a transformation will require some alteration or other to be made, mostly through the use of suffixes, which changes the ending of the original word. However, there are nominalizations that require no change at all, the difference between verb and noun being revealed through context.
Some common suffixes for nominalization are -ation, -ance, and -ment.
Having that in mind, let's change the verbs given in the question into nouns:
1. to act - action
2. to fail - failure
3. to permit - permission
4. to lose - loss
5. to think - thought/thinking
