C2 Spanish word formation worksheet: derived nouns, adjectives and verbs, negative prefixes and suffixes in context. Printable, with answers.
Start with Exercise 1 as a warm-up and ask learners which suffix each base word takes and why. Typical mistakes include overgeneralising suffixes (*ingenuidez, *recuperamiento), confusing -ble and -tivo adjectives, and forgetting the stem change in forms such as perjuicio and desvirtúa. As a follow-up, have learners write a short opinion paragraph that uses at least six words from the worksheet.
