    Suffixes: spelling
Often, the suffix causes a spelling change to the original word. In the table above, the -e ending of complicate and create disappears when the -ion suffix is added. Other examples of spelling changes include:

beauty, duty + -ful → beautiful, dutiful (-y changes to i)

heavy, ready + -ness → heaviness, readiness (-y changes to i)

able, possible + -ity → ability, possibility (-le changes to il)

permit, omit + -ion → permission, omission (-t changes to ss)

A good learner’s dictionary will give you information on the correct spelling of words with suffixes.
