Which of the following words contain the same suffix?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

First, identify what is being asked: which set of words share the same suffix.
Option 1: 'taller, smaller, teacher'—these do not share a common suffix. 'taller' and 'smaller' end with '-er' as a comparative form, while 'teacher' ends with '-er' but is a different morphological category, so the trio does not share a single clear suffix.
Option 2: 'plays, stresses, dogs'—these all end with 's' to indicate plural or third-person singular, but the suffix in terms of word formation is not a consistent morpheme across all three in the sense of a meaningful or common suffix like a standard '-ing' or '-ed' pattern; this option is not about a uniform suffix in the same sense as the others.
Option 3: 'illustration, manifestation, illumination'—all three words end with the suffix '-ation' (spelled 'ation' in each case), which is a recognizable and shared suffix forming nouns from verbs or roots.
Option 4: 'worker, danger, maker'—these end with '-er' or '-ar' and do not share a single uniform suffix across all three words; the endings vary in a way that does not establish one common suffix.
In summary, only Option 3 presents a set of words that uniformly share the same suffix, namely '-ation'.
