Find the misspelt word.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Correct Answer: Beautifull
Explanation
• The incorrectly spelt word is Beautifull.
• The correct spelling is Beautiful, which means pleasing the senses or mind aesthetically.
• The suffix -ful is always spelled with a single 'l' when added to a base word (e.g., beauty + ful = beautiful).
Quick Tip: Words ending with the suffix -ful take a single 'l' (e.g., careful, grateful, hopeful), whereas the adverb form adds -ly resulting in double 'l' (e.g., beautifully).
