    Непродуктивный суффикс “-MENT” появился в английском языке благодаря французскому, а во французский язык он пришел с латыни. Суффикс “-MENT” в подавляющем большинстве случаев присоединяется к глаголам и образует существительные, которые выражают результат действия ( тогда это может быть абстрактное или конкретное существительное) или само действие ( и это уже может быть только абстрактное существительное). Существительные с суффиксом “-MENT” также указывают на состояние или качество.

    Practice 2: more word formation

    The suffix -ment is a common ending in English words that is used to form nouns from verbs. This suffix can be traced back to Latin, where it was spelled -mentum, and it had the same meaning as it does in English, to describe a process, an action, or the result of an action.

    • The suffix -ment has been used in English for a long time.
    • The Latin version was used in French words to change verbs into nouns.
    • French loanwords then entered the English language, and these words gradually became a part of English vocabulary.

    Keep reading to see how the suffix -ment is used in a wide range of English words, from “movement” to “treatment.” Its versatility and usefulness make it an essential part of the English language. You’ll also find a FREE Suffix -ment word list PDF download at the end of this post.

    The Suffix -ment (Meaning)

    The suffix -ment is added to verbs to make nouns that mean THE ACTION or THE RESULT OF.

    For example, the verb manage becomes the noun management – the activity of running and controlling a business or similar organization.

    The verb adjust becomes the noun adjustment – a small change made to something in order to correct or improve it. [The result of that small change is the adjustment.]

    ment suffix – OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com

    Verb + ment = Noun
    argue argument – a conversation or discussion in which two or more people disagree, often angrily
    develop development – the steady growth of something so that it becomes more advanced, stronger, etc.
    move movement – an act of moving from one place to another or of moving something from one place to another
    ship shipment – the process of sending goods from one place to another
    treat treatment – something that is done to cure an illness or injury, or to make somebody look and feel good

    The Suffix -ment (Spelling Guide)

    In most cases the suffix -ment is added to root words (stem) with no change in spelling, with one exception. 

    According to Wiktionary.org – 

    Generally attached to stem without changes, except when the stem ends in -dge, where the -e is sometimes dropped, as in abridgment, acknowledgment, judgment, and lodgment;

    -ment

    *The verb argue also drops the -e when we make the noun argument.

    My writing assistant Grammarly prefers to keep the -e before adding the suffix -ment for words
    like acknowledgment.

    I make typos sometimes when I write my blog content. I often use voice typing which can also cause simple Grammar errors in my blog post document.

    What’s the difference between -ment and meant? 

    Ment is a suffix that is added to the end of a word to form a noun.
    For example, “enjoyment” means the state or quality of experiencing pleasure, “judgment” means the act of judging, and “treatment” means the act or manner of treating someone or something.

    Meant, on the other hand, is the past tense and past participle of the verb “mean.” Like most past participles meant is often used as an adjective that means “intended” or “purposed.”

    “I meant to call you yesterday, but I was busy at work.” – This means I intended to call you yesterday, but I did not.
