Forming Adjectives Using the Suffixes: "ful" and "less"
We can form adjectives by adding the suffix "ful" to some nouns:
("beauty" + 'ful' = beautiful); ("care" + 'ful' = careful)
Example: We need to be cheerful and helpful to people .
 We can use the suffix "less" to form adjectives meaning:
"without …": ("useless" = without use ); ("meaning" = without
meaning ); ("job " + '' = jobless);
Example: I feel so hopeless when I see the people of Gaza.
