Question

What is a negative suffix?

Answer 1

Sadness. Negative suffix is a suffix that attaches a negative meaning to the word or word-stem preceding it.

Answer 2

Answer: Effortless.

Explanation: You know suffixes right?  They are the end part of a word such as -ness, -ment, and -ism.  Negative suffixes are pretty much the same thing, but they're words with the suffix -less in them.  Examples of negative suffixes are hopeless, fearless, homeless, and tasteless.  Effortless has -less in it, so therefore, it's a negative suffix.

Let me know if it's right! :)
