Explanation
In this exercise, the learner is asked to match each word(base words essentially) to a suffix to form a different word. Making new words by adding an affix to a base word is a fairly standard way of teaching vocabulary. Here, the base words are "social", "relation", "child", "season" and the suffixes are "ish", "al", "ise", "ship". Let's create words by adding these suffixes one by one:1. "social" + "ise" makes "socialise"2. "relation" + "ship" makes "relationship"3. "child" + "ish" makes "childish"4. "season" + "al" makes "seasonal"
