Which of the following is an example of an inflected ending?

  1. /ing/

  2. /pre/

  3. /auto/

  4. /self/

The correct answer is: /ing/

An inflected ending is a group of letters added to the end of a base word that changes its tense, number, or form. In this case, "/ing/" is an example of an inflected ending because when added to a base verb (e.g., walk), it changes the verb to present participle form (e.g., walking). The other options (B, C, D) do not function as inflected endings but rather represent different types of letter combinations or bases.
