Summary/Abstract: In this paper, we analyze the suffix formation of deverbative nouns categorized as nomina agentis designating male agents. The following most productive suffixes for this use are singled out in this research: -ač, -lac, -ac, -telj, -ar, -ik, -nik, -aš, -isa - ist (a). After theoretical investigation, the given corpus is analyzed and classified by type of suffixation. In this paper, we give a review of the current research of this topic and also offer practical examples. This paper is therefore a contribution to the study of divergent nouns, revealing possibilities for further exploration of this topic.
