Literature

1 Words with suffixes -ante and -ente either come from
present participle of the Latin language (on
example, presidente), or formed directly
in the Spanish language in the process of substantivization from
present verb participle (for example,
estudiante). In Latin, these participles
have one single ending for all three genera, and in
Spanish they also refer to the creator-
of a generic genus.
