- Used to form agent nouns from verbs; analogous to the English suffix -er.
- Used to form terms of occupations from nouns; similar to English -er or -man.
- Used in compound suffixes to denote a person who studies or practices whatever the base noun means; similar to English -ist or -er.
- -sellens (“-logy”) → -sell·ja (“-logist”)
- neasellens (“astronomy”) → neasell·ja (“astronomer”)
- rintisellens (“biology”) → rintisell·ja (“biologist”)
- olbôntisellens (“chemistry”) → olbôntisell·ja (“chemist”)
- -sênnent (“-graphy”) → -senn·ja (“-logist”)
- êrrisênnent (“geography”) → êrrisênn·ja (“geographer”)
- tanǧintisênnent (“etymology”) → tanǧintisênn·ja (“etymologist”)
- -fiðent (“-metry”) → -fiðja (“-metrist”)
- êrrifiðent (“geodesy, land surveying”) → êrrifiðja (“geodesist, land surveyor”)
- -sellens (“-logy”) → -sell·ja (“-logist”)
- Used to form demonyms from place names, including country names; certain endings may be dropped when this suffix is added.
Usage notes
- The suffix causes palatalisation of the preceding consonant or consonant cluster in sense 4 but not in senses 1-3.
