You're welcome! I'm here to help. It seems like you're looking for the answers relating to the suffixes of the words you provided. The suffix is the part of the word that comes after the root or base word and alters its meaning.
Suffixes can give us information about the part of speech (e.g., noun, verb, adjective, adverb) or provide additional meaning. Let's break down each word and its suffix:
1. Colorful - The suffix here is "-ful." It is used to form adjectives that mean "full of" or "having." In this case, colorful means "full of color."
2. Late - This word does not have a suffix. It is a simple adjective that means "occurring or done after the usual or expected time."
3. Northern - The suffix in this word is "-ern." It is used to form adjectives that relate to a direction or location. Northern describes something related to the north.
4. Troubled - The suffix here is "-ed." It is commonly used to form past tense verbs or adjectives describing a state or condition. Troubled describes someone or something that is full of trouble or distress.
5. Straight - This word does not have a suffix. It is a simple adjective or adverb describing something that is not curved or bent.
