Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
1. For the words with -ity suffix:
   - "legible" becomes "legibility", which means the quality of being able to be read. In the context of the sentence about the note, bad handwriting affects legibility.
   - "objective" becomes "objectivity", which is the quality of being objective or not influenced by personal feelings. A judge should show objectivity.
   - "liquid" becomes "liquidity", which in a financial context (as in the bank - officials' worry) means the ability to pay back loans easily, related to the availability of cash or easily - convertible assets.
   - "maneuverable" becomes "maneuverability", which is the quality of being able to be maneuvered or moved easily. A small car may have high maneuverability.
   - "visible" becomes "visibility", which is the state of being visible. Darkness and fog can reduce visibility.
2. For the words with -ment suffix:
   - "abandon" becomes "abandonment", which means the act of abandoning or giving up.
