Who has a list of words with the suffix est?

I don't have a list of words with the suffix "est."

However, I can tell you that "est" is a common suffix used to form the superlative form of adjectives and adverbs in English.

Here's how it works:

* Adjectives: "est" is added to the end of most adjectives to indicate the highest degree of a quality.

* Example: "tall" becomes "tallest"

* Adverbs: "est" is used less commonly with adverbs, but it can indicate the highest degree of manner or intensity.

* Example: "fast" becomes "fastest"

Important Notes:

* Some words already have the suffix "est" as part of their base form (e.g., "newest").

* Irregular adjectives and adverbs have special superlative forms (e.g., "good" becomes "best").

* For adjectives ending in "-y," the "y" is usually changed to "i" before adding "est" (e.g., "happy" becomes "happiest").

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have other questions about English grammar.
