Question

Define the following word using the meaning of the suffix. Use your dictionary if you are uncertain of the definition. useless relating to use state of use without use quality of use

Answer 1

the answer is "without use"

Answer 2

Suffixes are a type of morpheme (the smallest unit of meaning of a word) that are added at the end of a word to modify the word's meaning. The suffix “less” means “without” and is found in words like childless, peerless, tireless, resistless, careless, fearless, endless and useless.

The term “useless,” then, means without use.
