Adding the suffix ally and ly
I like this rule! I think of a little creature called IC
IC has a friend called ALLY.
IC always likes to be with ALLY when they are out IC+ALLY = ICALLY apart from when they are in in public, when ALLY is embarrassed of IC and sends him out with LY IC and LY PUBLICLY
Remember when spelling: where there is an ic , there is ally (apart from in public)
LY turns words with le at the end in ly e.g bubble + ly + bubb (drop the le and add ly) bubbly.
He also just connects himself to any other root word and there is no need to drop the e
Rare + ly = rarely
Brave + ly = bravely
Light + ly = lightly
But when ly adds onto a word with a y , drop the y and add an i
Here are your spellings :
Pathetically publicly kindly
Tragically gently likely
Energetically angrily
Comically hourly
