The affix ("-tion") is a suffix that is commonly used to form abstract nouns from a verb or adjective. It conveys the meaning of "the act or state of" or "the result of." For example, the verb "educate" becomes the noun "education" by adding the "-tion" suffix, indicating the action or process of educating. Similarly, the adjective "inform" becomes the noun "information" by adding the same suffix, denoting the result or state of being informed.
