Verified by Toppr

Many adjectives are formed from a base of a different class with a suffix (e.g. -less, -ous). Adjectives can also be formed from other adjectives, especially by the negative prefixes (un-, in- and non-). The most common suffixes are -al, -ent, -ive, -ous, -ful, -less. Delight is a noun which means something that gives great pleasure or enjoyment. Option C gives the correct used adjective (It describes something that is greatly pleasing). In this case, the suffix is -ful as mentioned earlier in this solution.
delight + ful = delightful
Option C is the correct option
