These endings can be tricky, but with a little practice, you&#8217;ll become experts at using them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>What do -able and -ible mean?<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Both <strong>-able<\/strong> and <strong>-ible<\/strong> mean &#8216;able to be&#8217; or &#8216;capable of being&#8217;. They&#8217;re added to the end of a root word (the main part of the word) to change its meaning. Let&#8217;s look at some examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>-able Examples<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>-ible Examples<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Wash + -able = Washable<\/strong>: Able to be washed.<\/td><td><strong>Flexible<\/strong>: Able to be bent easily.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Read + -able = Readable<\/strong>: Able to be read.<\/td><td><strong>Possible<\/strong>: Able to be done.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Enjoy + -able = Enjoyable<\/strong>: Able to be enjoyed.<\/td><td><strong>Visible<\/strong>: Able to be seen.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Believe + -able = Believable<\/strong>: Able to be believed.<\/td><td><strong>Edible<\/strong>: Able to be eaten.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>How do I know when to use -able or -ible?<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the tricky part! There isn&#8217;t a perfect rule, but here&#8217;s a helpful tip:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Most of the time, if the root word is a complete word, you usually add <strong>-able<\/strong> (like <em>read-able<\/em>).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the root word isn&#8217;t a complete word on its own, you often add <strong>-ible<\/strong> (like <em>vis-ible<\/em>).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Important Note<\/strong>: There are always exceptions to the rule!
