You may need to be a bit clearer. What line of code (or what
expression)? What did you expect to see, and what did you see?

In Python, indexing is zero-based and, in effect, indexes the
boundaries between items rather than the items themselves. Referencing
string[-1] actually means asking for the boundary between the
second-last and last characters; using that as your end marker
actually trims off the last character. What you may want is simply:

self.wordList[i][1:]

which means "from character position 1 to the end of the string".

Hope that helps!

Sorry I didn't specify things more clearly.
