About this test list: al as a suffix (copy)

If you add suffix to the end of a base word, it creates a new word with a modified meaning.

The words in this list include the suffix -al, which comes from Latin and is commonly used to form adjectives that describe characteristics, qualities, actions, or processes associated with a particular noun.

As -al is a vowel suffix, any vowel at the end of a root word is removed before the suffix is added. For example: arrive - e = arriv-, arriv- + -al = arrival.

If the root word doesn't end in a vowel, no change needs to be made before the suffix is added. For example: intention + -al = intentional.

One of the students has put in a huge amount of effort in completing Spellzone at least 3 times a week since his arrival with us in January. Looking at his scores after the latest GL testing, his standardised score has risen from 99 to 131. This is a truly phenomenal result. I just wanted to share the best result I have ever seen.
