1. Friendship
2. Membership
3. Relationship
4. Argueship

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : Argueship

The correct answer is "Argueship".

• Suffixes are a letter or group of letters added to the ending of words to change their meaning or function.
• Let us explore the given options:
  • In the first option, when the suffix 'ship' is added to the word 'Friend', it creates the word 'Friendship'.
  • In the second option, when the suffix 'ship' is added to the word 'Member', it creates the word 'Membership'.
  • In the third option, when the suffix 'ship' is added to the word 'Relation', it creates the word 'Relationship'.
  • In the fourth option, when the suffix 'ship' is added to the word 'Relation', it creates the word 'Argueship' which doesn't have any existence or meaning.
• Hence, the correct option is option 4.
