Answer:

The possible suffixes for the word admire are: -able and -ation

Step-by-step explanation:

Suffixes are letters that area added to a word in order to change its meaning or function. Suffixes are added at the end of a word.

In this case, the word admire is a verb and by adding the suffix -able, its function changes into the adjective "admirable". If we add the suffix -ation, the verb admire is changed into the noun "admiration".
