Using suffixes -er -ar -or to make nouns - Skillsworkshop

Making nouns from verbs You can add -or or -er to the end of many verbs to make nouns. • The nouns you make are the names of the people (or objects) that carry out the verb. E.g. bake – baker, destroy – destroyer, visit – visitor, rob – robber. • Both these word endings (suffixes) sound like ‘er’ so be careful with spelling.
