slow (adjective) + ness (suffix) = slowness (noun)
teach (verb) + er (suffix) = teacher (noun)
prevent (verb) + ion (suffix) = prevntion (noun)
good (adjective) + ness (suffix) = goodness (noun)
drink (verb), drink (noun) = not a derivational noun (a converted noun, a word that functions as another part of speech without changing the word)
