Word Forms Worksheet: Noun, Verb, Adjective
Word tip (The gap decides the form): Endings help: -tion, -sion, -ness, -ity, -ence → noun; -ful, -ive, -ous, -able, -ent → adjective; -ly → adverb; -ify, en- → verb. Look at the gap: after a, the, your → noun; after will, can, to → verb; before a noun or after is → adjective; telling how something is done → adverb. Read the sentence with your word in it to check.
