The suffix -ant means �someone who �.� It �s very similar to -ent, -er, and -or.� An occupant is someone who occupies i.e. a house. Someone who teaches is a teacher. Someone who responds is a respondent.� Hope this helps. Peter

Do you mean e.g. "ambulant"? In this case, it has the same function as the gerund suffix "-ing". Brilliant - which shines Hesitant - who hesitates Triumphant - which is victorious, which triumphs etc. |
