Wait a minute..I forgot to mention the part of speech they belong to. Well, I'll give you some tips you'll have to figure it out yourselves
Nouns, you will discover, often end in conventional suffixes: -ness, -ty, -ism, -y, -ion, etc.
Verbs, you will discover, often end in conventional suffixes: -ate, -ize, -fy, etc.
Adjectives, you will discover, often end in conventional suffixes: -ic, -ed, -ous, -al, -ive, etc.
And Advebs, of course, are generally formed by adding -ly to an adjective.Next word is "ALLEGE", which means to assert without any proof.
Well, there wasn't a good "AMBIENCE" in the Parliament, means there wasn't a good atmosphere;mood;feeling
Left's "ANTIPATHY" to nuclear deal- Antipathy means a firm dislike.
"ANTITHESIS" - The direct opposite
