Common mistakes
What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.
Learners over-generalise a special case of suffixes to every situation.

Students treat suffixes as a rule to memorise rather than a relationship to understand.
Correction: Anchor the rule in a visual model first, then abstract it — the model is the explanation.
