Answers
The word that does not end with suffix-tion is: ‘nation’.
All other words have been made nouns by adding the suffix ‘-tion’:
1)congratulation= congratulate+-tion
2)production = produce+-tion
3)nation
4)creation= create+-tion
But the word nation is a single word.
So we reach the conclusion that the word ‘nation’ is the word that does not end with suffix –‘tion’
A suffix is a morpheme or words added at the end of the word to form a new word or change the meaning of the word.
Example, with the suffix -etic (means relating to), an athlete is changed into athletic and energy is changed into energetic which changes the meaning of the word.
Therefore, the word which does not end with the suffix -tion is "Nation" because the nation is a noun which refers to the country or land. Whereas other words such as congratulations, production, and creation have the root word as congratulate, product and create which by adding suffix changes its meaning.
