In a participle-rich language, the following participle-types could imaginably exist:
1. A "made by"-participle
Let us say it's formed by -ekt. 'hammer-ekt tin', tin made by hammering it, 'burn-ekt brick', brick made by burning it, etc.
2. A "made by"-participle restricted to food-stuff.
-nepekt
grill-nepekt fish
deepfry-nepekt potatoes
dry-nepekt grapes
3. A "-ing"-participle restricted to food-stuff:
-neper
brew-neper man : the man that brews (beer)
4. A "made for"-participle:
-tert
endure-tert house
protect-tert mansion
confuse-tert puzzle
Can be extended to adjectives by verbing them:
strong-[verb derivation]-tert fabric: fabric designed for strength
All of these can be used as gerunds as well:
brew-neper in moderation complements all do-neper: brewing in moderation complements all cooking.
endure-tert is better than impress-tert
"being made for endurance is better than being made for impressing people"
