The word that fits the spelling rule is "grievance."
When you add a suffix to "grievance," you would apply the spelling rule by changing the "y" to "i" if the word were to end with a "y" (though in this case, "grievance" itself does not end in "y". However, if there were a related form, such as "grievant," it would apply). Typically, words that end in "y" include "happy," where you would change the "y" to "i" before adding "ness," resulting in "happiness."
If you were looking for examples strictly from the listed words, then none of them specifically meet the direct end-with-y rule, but they collectively address various suffix applications. Let me know if you want a more specific example or explanation!
