To determine which of the given vocabulary words ends in a suffix that indicates it is an adjective, we need to look closely at the word endings.
Suffixes are added to the end of a base word to change its meaning or function. In the case of adjectives, common suffixes include '-ed', '-ing', '-ful', '-less', '-ous', and '-ive'.
Let's examine each word from the options:
1. 'imminent' does not end in any of the common adjective suffixes. Therefore, it is not an adjective.
2. 'doggedness' ends in the suffix '-ness'. The '-ness' suffix is commonly used to turn adjectives into nouns. Therefore, 'doggedness' is not an adjective.
3. 'infallibility' does not end in any of the common adjective suffixes. Therefore, it is not an adjective.
From the given options, none of the words end in a suffix that indicates they are adjectives.
