Marks: +1, -0
One among the following is not the suffix of Adjectives. Identify it.
Solution:  
Concept:
Understanding common suffixes used to form adjectives and identifying which one does not fit the pattern.
Explanation:
Adjectives are words that describe nouns. Many adjectives are formed by adding suffixes to other words, often nouns or verbs. Let's look at the given options:
-ful: This suffix is commonly added to nouns to form adjectives, meaning "full of" or "having the quality of" (e.g., joyful, beautiful).
-less: This suffix is added to nouns to form adjectives, meaning "without" (e.g., homeless, fearless).
-some: This suffix can be added to nouns or adjectives to form new adjectives, often meaning "characterized by" or "causing" (e.g., handsome, troublesome).
-hood: This suffix is primarily used to form nouns that denote a state, condition, or period of time (e.g., childhood, brotherhood, likelihood). It does not typically form adjectives.
Therefore, '-hood' is the suffix that is not typically used to form adjectives.
Answer:
D. -hood
