How do you spell "missed task"? The word "unfulfilled" contains two complex spelling: the choice of continuous or separate spelling with "not" and the double consonant (nn) in the suffix. These types of spelling patterns often present difficulties in writing. How to avoid a mistake?
Part of speech
The first thing to establish when faced with a possible doubling of "n" in the suffix is ​​part of the speech of the word. For now, we will consider the word "completed", since the addition of negation does not affect the suffix.
Ask a question. Which one? Accomplished. To the question "what?" answer adjectives and participles. To choose from these options, you need to understand from which part of the speech the word "completed" is formed. It is derived from the word "execute" in a suffix way. Run is a verb. So, “completed” can be either a verb adjective or a participle.
In the first case, one letter "n" is written in the suffix, and in the second - two.
Double consonant
Communion, in contrast to the verb adjective, has at least one of the following symptoms:
- The presence of a prefix. (The prefix "not" does not count, so it is rightfully discarded.)
- The suffixes "-ova-", "-eva" or "-irov-".
- Perfect view. To determine the type, you need to ask a question to the verb from which the word under investigation is formed. If the verb in the initial form answers the question "what to do?", Then it is imperfect. To infinitives of perfect verbs, the question “what to do?” Is asked. The verb word has the same form as the verb itself.
- The presence of a dependent word.
In the case of the word "completed" there are two signs at once: the prefix "you-" and the perfect look. ("What to do? - Run.") Thus, part of the speech is defined - full communion.
Conclusion: "completed" is written with two "n".
Spelling "not" with the participle
First of all, it is necessary to exclude a simple variant, when the participle without "no" is not used. Does the phrase "completed task" make sense? Of course.
The basis for writing the full participle separately with the particle “not” is the presence of a dependent word.
For instance:
- "I have not completed the task."
- "Time not completed task."
Another case of spelling occurs when a contrast occurs in the context.
- "Not completed, but failed mission."
If there are no dependent words and contrasts, the prefix “not” with the participle is written together: an unfulfilled task.
Comment
The word “unfulfilled” also has a simpler spelling in the root - an unstressed vowel. This is a verifiable vowel. Verification word - execute.
