A suffix is a letter or group of letters at the end of a word which creates another word. -ed is a suffix that can be used to create the past tense. If the verb has a short vowel, double the consonant and add -ed. Change 'y' to 'i' and add –ed (common rule – unless vowel before ‘y’, e.g. enjoy-enjoyed). How to spell the curriculum word: busy.
