Analyze the morphological components provided to determine the correct vocabulary word.
Cevap:By analyzing its components—the negative prefix *in-* (meaning 'not'), the Latin root *corrigere* (meaning 'to correct'), and the suffix *-ible* (meaning 'capable of')—identify the adjective 【incorrigible】, which describes a person or behavior that is firmly established and completely beyond reform.
Cevap
incorrigible
The word 'incorrigible' is directly formed by combining the prefix 'in-' (not), the root 'corrigere' (to correct), and the suffix '-ible' (capable of). Its literal etymological translation—'not capable of being corrected'—flawlessly corresponds to the contextual definition of an individual whose habits are firmly established and beyond any possibility of reform.
