Admonitioner

/ˌædməˈnɪʃənər/ noun

Definition

A person who admonishes or gives warnings to others.

Etymology

Admonition + -er (agent noun suffix meaning 'one who'). This rare form follows the standard English pattern of turning actions into the people who perform them.

Kelly Says

While admonitioner is technically valid, English speakers almost never use it—we prefer 'someone who admonishes' instead, showing how English prefers shorter, more established words over newly-stacked suffixes.
