For spelling purposes, it is useful to know that -ableis more likely to be added to a whole English word (comparable, adorable), while -ibleis more likely to follow a bound root (visible, legible). However,there are still many words which combine a root with -able(capable, inevitable).  The suffix -ity can be added to any adjective ending in -able, -ible, -bleto produce a corresponding noun ending in -ability, -ibility, -bility (possible+ -ity > possibility; irrevocable+ -ity > irrevocability.)\r\n"
