Verbs ending in a silent e usually change to nouns by ending -er: read/reader write/writer produce/producer -or is used when the base word ends in -ate, -ct, or -it calculate/calculator | contract/contractor...

hi chitra, in , or are prepositions Hence can be used in a sentence. or can be used when you have 2 options and ar are not counted in grammar. they are neither added nor used in any rule. these are self generated words you can't change. e.g.- Brother, sister.

Has your grand father, grand mother, uncle or aunt ever corrected your Spoken English? In many parts of Tamil Nadu, especially in villages, a car was addressed as a "Pleasure" (during1960s). My father's elder brother worked as a Government Interpreter, English-Tamil-English, in Singapore during British rule and spent half span of his life there with his family. After retirement he settled down in his native town in Tamil Nadu. He used to teach English to youngsters and correct their silly mistakes too. Once we were shouting "Pleasure, pleasure" on seeing a car plying in our town. He explained how the word "Pleasure" originated. Travelling by car is still a pleasure but one used to feel overjoyed in those days. Some educated person called the experience as a "Pleasure" and villagers misinterpreted it and started calling a car a "Pleasure".
Healthy sharing. Way forward
