For which of the following do you need to drop the final e before adding the suffix?


A.) replace + -ing

B.) all of the above

C.) replace + -ment

D.) replace + -able

Answer 1

Answer:

A: replacing

Explanation:

 The word replacing is formed by dropping the final E and adding the suffix ing. With some exceptions, the  spelling rule indicates that we should drop the final E  of a word  when we need to add a suffix that begins with I  (ing) or al (surviv + al); (replac + ing.) For suffixes ment and able  the E  is not dropped: replacement; replaceable.
