Answer 4

The prefix of "rely" is "re-", which means "again" or "back." The suffix of "rely" is "-ly," which is an adverbial suffix that turns the adjective "reliable" into the adverb "reliably." Together, the prefix and suffix modify the root word "ly," creating the word "rely," which means to depend on or trust in someone or something.

"Rely is a verb and not a noun. It has no plural or singular forms" While rely is a verb, the op was asking if relies can be used in place of rely. The difference between rely and relies is that rely is used for in and relies is used for on. So you can rely in my work, and that guy relies on his good looks.
