§Grammar and usage
An inflectional ending such as -s, -ed or -ing changes the grammar of a word but not its basic meaning, while a derivational suffix such as -ness or -ful makes a new word.
-s, -ed या -ing जैसा inflectional ending शब्द का grammar बदलता है, उसका मूल अर्थ नहीं, जबकि -ness या -ful जैसा derivational suffix एक नया शब्द बना देता है।
