I think you should also note that the -ed and -ing endings can also function as adjectives (past and present participles) and nouns (gerunds).
When -er is used noncomparatively as in a person who sings (singer) and -ing as in showing (as in a house showing) they function as nouns. Does this mean that -er and -ing can be derivational endings that change meaning?
vry helpful indeed i like the simplicity of language i highly recommend as reference for beginners
