from From 'learn,' traced back to Old English 'leornian,' which shares an ancient root with 'lore' and possibly with a Germanic base meaning 'to follow a track' — the idea of learning as tracing a path someone else has already walked. The '-er' suffix was simply bolted on, as English loves to do, to turn the verb into 'one who does it.'
