Fascinating Fact:

Intelligent and intelligence look similar. Intelligent ends with -gent, intelligence with -gence, so say in-tel-li-gent and in-tel-li-gence carefully to spot the different endings.

In KS3 English spelling, students explore how groups of letters such as int- appear in many related words. Spotting these patterns helps with spelling, vocabulary growth and confident exam writing.

Key Terms

Word family: A group of words that share a similar part, such as int-, and are linked in meaning or spelling.
Suffix: A group of letters added to the end of a word, such as -gent or -gence, which changes its form or use.
Pronunciation: The way a word is spoken, including its syllables and stress, which can help you remember how to spell it.

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

What does intelligent mean in KS3 English?

In KS3 English, intelligent describes someone who is good at understanding ideas, learning new things and solving problems. It is often used to talk about how thoughtfully a person works or behaves.

What spelling pattern do words beginning with int- often follow?

Many int- words start with in- plus another consonant, like interest, internal and intention. Saying them in syllables, such as in-ter-est or in-ter-nal, helps you notice and remember the shared int- pattern.

How can I revise tricky int- spellings for KS3 tests?

Use look, say, cover, write, check, then put each word into a sentence. Say the syllables out loud, highlight the ending and test yourself again the next day to fix the spellings in memory.
