Suffixes used to transform an adjective into a noun @hippietrail but you didn't get 5 upvotes for your "Yes" in this question, but for the good examples. The question is quite rhetoric, it cannot be the aim to formulate questions in a way that they fit SE Standard, but then anyway generate lists? Bad plea and a bit fussy. So should I flag my question as CW?. I also don't see the point of rash closing of questions, not waiting for more down/up-votes or min. 5 close votes, esp. in BETA, when the scope is defined. That's not a very productive atmosphere prevailing upon other user to comment/vote/ask questions, concerning your meta question... |

Suffixes used to transform an adjective into a noun @Flimzy isn't your question spanish.stackexchange.com/questions/324/… a even more open-ended list question than this one? If you can explain I dont see a need to make a extra meta question, because I still think my question is very on-topic as the GLU community already proved. You are asking for "any words", how can you accept a answer here? |

Suffixes used to transform an adjective into a noun thanks @hippietrail some of these I already find out using german and english suffixes and translation services, but of course I would be especially interested in the ones I cannot derive that way as I don't have the holistic knowledge of vocabulary as a native speaker. I read that there are many suffixes in Spanish, so I'm highly interested in these patterns. In German and English there don't seem to exist more than 3-4 of such suffixes. |

Suffixes used to transform an adjective into a noun @Flimzy they are not accepted as correct, but fitting best the need of the single questioner, correct is mostly the highest upvoted answer. Personally, I always read at least 2-3 answers, as the questioner may have a different knowledge background and accepts a answer I would not even voted. I don't think the accepted feature is at all a criterion to rule out questions. It's more a sorting feature for unanswered/poorly answered questions. Following your reasoning people come to SE to read only the accepted answers and only vote the most correct answer, but not several in a question? |

Is/Was there a Basic Spanish? @vartec Hey, I didn't say I'm a expert in spanish history :) I know that there were concepts of controlled german at the time of colonialism, maybe more to control aboriginals than to educate them. I know Spanish is one of the easier to learn languages, but there may have been still a use of a simpler Spanish with few grammatic rules and small vocabulary to teach it to many people within a short period of time. |

Suffixes used to transform an adjective into a noun comparable to a science proposal. The majority will often just vote, what sound best or common to them. And that's imo correct, as use of language is evolving on and on and highly defined by the majority |
