What to Focus On

  • A word can change its part of speech.
  • Suffixes often help in making the change.
  • The sentence meaning remains the same or very close.

  • An adjective may change into a noun.
  • An adjective may change into an adverb.
  • The new form must fit the sentence correctly.

  • Verbs can become nouns.
  • The noun form often expresses the action or result.
  • Sentence structure may change after substitution.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Any word can be replaced by another word with the same meaning without changing the structure.

When an adjective changes into another part of speech, it always becomes a noun.

A verb can always be changed into a noun by simply adding 'ness' or 'ity'.
