Here comes another one of my confirmation bias. Some words with structure-like characteristics tend to share the same ending in -ment, such as tenement, apartment, department, and basement. It follows the same logic for some words with a sense of binding, uniting, or gathering: nation, station, constellation, congregation, etc.
Is my radar receiving the wrong signal? Would it work to swap the ending for these words in the first place?
