Words beginning with ind...

Is your spelling indestructible? Find out in this KS3 quiz on words beginning at ind.

"When you're a kid, you have this feeling like you're indestructible. Your mortality doesn't even occur to you. But as time goes by, you realise, I better cut this out or that out if I want to continue to exist." - David Johansen.

Words ending in the suffix -ible can catch the unwary speller out. Both -ible and -able sound the same at the end of a word, and -able is certainly more common. In addition to "indestructible", how many words ending in -ible can you list? It's possible, or even probable, that you will think of very few. It's even credible that anyone with handwriting that is remotely legible will begin to think that this sentence is no longer intelligible. Did you spot the -ibles there?
