	Phonology, Phonics, and English Spelling
		Morphophonemic rules (different ways of pronouncing suffixes such as past tense <-ed>, for example) are also important: a particular morpheme may have fewer spellings than it has pronunciations (for example, the <-s> suffix for plural nouns is sometimes pronounced /s/ and sometimes /z/; the <-ed> suffix is pronounced three ways: /d/, /t/, and /(schwa)d/.
		English spelling is our traditional way of representing the English language in written form; there is no necessary connection between the spelling system and the language system.
		The 26 letters of the English alphabet are the raw material used to create graphemes, which in turn are used to represent the phonemes of the language.

		Note that this list includes only derivational suffixes (which form new words, often of a different part of speech) and suffixes which serve to mark the part of speech.

	Suffix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In grammar, a suffix — a form of affix — follows the morpheme to which it attaches.
		In the English language, suffixes appear as additions at the end of a word (or at the end of part of a word).
		For an example from colloquial (British) English take the word "soonish", where the suffix "ish" modifies the root-word "soon", changing its meaning to "soon, but not all that soon".

	The 12dicts Word Lists
		The other list, the 2of12 list, is more inclusive in that it includes words listed in as few as two of the source dictionaries, but less inclusive in that it excludes items of various sorts, including multiword phrases, proper names and abbreviations.
		Unlike the 6of12 and 2of12 lists, this list is not based exclusively on the contents of my 12 source dictionaries, and for this reason it has, I feel, less authority than the other classic 12dicts lists.
		Because these two lists have the same rules for the kinds of words included, one could easily combine the two to produce a slightly larger list including a number of words whose omission from 6of12 is rather surprising.
