Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both -ac and -eal are adjective suffixes that can form adjectives from nouns (e.g. cardiac, facial). -iac can also form adjectives (e.g. maniac, hypochondriac), but it is not as common as the first two suffixes. -ism, on the other hand, is not an adjective suffix, but rather a suffix that can form nouns from verbs or adjectives (e.g. capitalism, racism).
