sarahyip17 on 13 Mar 17Researchers have found that English has seemed to organize itself based on spelling on its own. The four suffixes (-ous like in hazardous, -ic like in allergic, -al like in final and -y like in funny) have had consistent spellings over time. Researchers looked back at samples from around 1000 years ago and found that certain suffixes won over another spelling.
