Question

. 'Development' is a noun with '-ment' as a suffix. Which of the following will become a noun if we add the suffix '-ment' to it?

• A. Extort
• B. Enter
• C. Enchant
• D. Endure

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Enchant

When the suffix "-ment" is added to the word "enchant", it becomes the noun "enchantment."

### Explanation:

- The suffix "-ment" is used to form nouns that refer to the action or result of an action. In this case, adding "-ment" to "enchant" creates "enchantment", which refers to the state or result of being enchanted or the act of enchanting.

### Example:

- Enchant (verb) → Enchant + -ment = Enchantment (noun), which means the state of being under a magical spell or the act of casting a spell.

So, the word "enchant" becomes the noun "enchantment" when the suffix "-ment" is added.
