Sometimes it sounds hard without -y or -ly
Verily I say unto you, you must change the "y" to "i" first.
no
In nouns that end with a consonant and Y, the final Y is dropped and the letters ies are added to make the word plural. In words that end with a vowel and Y, the final Y is retained and an S is added, unless that final vowel is a U.
The adverb is indelibly. Adjectives such as indelible, visible, or arguable already have an L, so add only the Y. Where the L is the last letter (actual, visual), it is doubled by the addition of LY.
The adjective lazy has the adverb form lazily.For most adjectives that end in Y, the Y becomes an i before you add -LY.
There are no specific rules to be followed for words ending in "ely". Most of the root words ending in E add -ly whereas words ending in Y replace the Y with an I before adding the -ly. Examples: complete => completely icy => icily hungry => hungrily
The suffix "-y" is used to form adjectives, while "-ly" is used to form adverbs. The suffix "-ily" is a combination of "-i" and "-ly" and is also used to form adverbs.
