Solid Explorer shows this:
That's just for the hosts file. You want to know if /system is mounted rw. If you have an app like terminal emulator, open it and type: mount Then look for /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system on /system type ext4. In parentheses it will either have ro (read-only) or rw(read-write).

Also, I don't use Solid explorer but it probably has a way to mount the system rw. Someone else would have to help you with that.

Edit: You would have to be rooted to change permissions with a file manager like Solid.

Solution - go to twrp, go to wipe then advanced wipe, select system and then tap on increase size.
The problem is because the partition has no space left to accommodate files. You will not be able to write host files nor change font via ifont because both files need space ~5mb. Hope this solves your problem.
