The suffix -th is typically added to stem words to reflect what concept?

  1. A process or action

  2. A unit of measurement

  3. A condition or state

  4. A physical attribute

The correct answer is: A condition or state

The suffix -th is commonly used to indicate a condition or state in the context of various English words. For instance, adding -th to the root word "warm" forms "warmth," which conveys the condition of being warm. Similarly, "strength" refers to the state of being strong. This linguistic pattern shows how the suffix transforms the meaning of the base word to reflect a quality or state rather than an action, measurement, or physical attribute. The other options may relate to different suffixes or word forms, but -th specifically denotes a condition or state, making it the correct choice in this context.
