Adding the suffix -ity to a word makes it?

Adding the suffix "-ity" to a word typically makes it an abstract noun.

Here's what that means:

* Abstract Noun: Represents a concept, quality, or state rather than a concrete object. It's something you can't touch or see directly.

Examples:

* Real + -ity = Reality (the state of being real)

* Pure + -ity = Purity (the quality of being pure)

* Active + -ity = Activity (the state of being active)

Important Note: While "-ity" usually creates abstract nouns, there are exceptions. Some words ending in "-ity" can be adjectives or even verbs.
