Spelling
Suffix or word ending ‘ent’
The word endings ‘ent’ and ‘ant’ can sound the same and are often confused.
These words all end with ‘ent’ and follow the rules given below.
- A suffix is a letter or letters added to the end of a word to make another word.
- Syllables are the beats in a word: do (1 beat), do-ing (2 beats), un-do-ing (3 beats).
- Every syllable must have a vowel or a ‘y’: un-do–i
- The letter ‘c’ can be hard (cat) or soft (cell). The letter ‘g’ can be hard (get) or soft (gent).
