Here is the step-by-step solution to the worksheet:
1.
Understand the Goal: The instructions ask to add either the suffix
-ful or
-less to each word to create a new word that matches the meaning provided.
*
-ful means "full of" something.
*
-less means "without" or "lacking" something.
2.
Analyze each item:
*
1. fear (full of fear): Since it means "full of," we add
-ful.
* Word:
fearful
*
2. heart (full of heart): Since it means "full of," we add
-ful.
* Word:
heartful (Note: While "hearty" is common, based strictly on the worksheet's pattern of adding -ful for "full of," the answer is heartful).
*
3. law (without law): Since it means "without," we add
-less.
* Word:
lawless
*
4. use (without use): Since it means "without," we add
-less.
* Word:
useless
*
5. woe (full of woe): Since it means "full of," we add
-ful.
* Word:
woeful
*
6. pain (full of pain): Since it means "full of," we add
-ful.
* Word:
painful
*
7. care (full of care): Since it means "full of," we add
-ful.
* Word:
careful
*
8. hate (full of hate): Since it means "full of," we add
