Hello! Hello! All you English fans

Greetings to all on this beautiful sunny day:) The sun is shining in Leipzig. And I am experiencing warmish weather on my balcony.  (Practicing social distancing you know)

Ooh! Did I just say warmish? What doeswarm-ISHmean?

Did you know you can almost end any adjective with -ish in English? Try it! Choose an adjective and add -ish. Pretty-ish, ugly-ish, tall-ish, ....

-ISH is a useful suffix(ending) to add when something is almost warm but not quite. Something is almost red but not quite. The flowers were reddish.

It works with some nouns as well. You go to a restaurant and try something new – What does it taste like? It tastes coffee-ish.  Yes, it tastes somewhat like coffee but not quite.
