Substitution of One Part of Speech for Another

Adverb to adjective

Step 1: Identify the original word - 'obviously' is an adverb modifying the entire statement. Step 2: Find the substituted word - 'obvious' is an adjective describing 'it'. Step 3: The suffix '-ly' was removed to convert from adverb to adjective. Step 4: The sentence structure changed to accommodate this transformation, but the core meaning remained the same.

argue

Step 1: Identify the noun 'argument'. Step 2: Remove the suffix '-ment' to find the root. Step 3: The base verb is 'argue'. Step 4: 'Argumentative' is an adjective, 'arguably' is an adverb, and 'arguer' would be a noun referring to a person who argues. Only 'argue' is the correct verb form.

anger

Step 1: Identify 'angry' as an adjective describing the remark. Step 2: In the transformed sentence, we need the noun form. Step 3: Remove the suffix '-y' and add '-er' to get 'anger'. Step 4: 'Angrily' is an adverb, 'angered' is a past participle/verb form, and 'angering' is a present participle. The noun 'anger' correctly replaces the adjective.

Adjective/gerund to noun

Step 1: Identify 'increasing' which functions as an adjective/gerund modifying 'cybercrimes'. Step 2: Find 'increase' which is a noun in the transformed sentence. Step 3: The '-ing' suffix was removed to convert from the gerund/adjectival form to the simple noun. Step 4: This changes the sentence structure while maintaining the same meaning about cybercrime growth.
