- We need to do any thing possible so that the facade of the building will not have to “weather”
- We will not allow the rocks to “weather”.
Please can one use “weather” as a “noun” in the above sense to play as a “verb”?
The reason is (weathers, weathering, weathered). I had wanted to use “weathers” in the above statements since it has the verb connotation.
There is no such concept. In a given context, a word is either a noun, or it is a verb, or it is some other part of speech (ignoring grey areas not relevant to the main point here). For example, in “The weather is good today”, the word “weather” is a noun, while in “… so that the facade of the building will not have to weather”, the word “weather” is a verb.
“weathers” can be either the plural of the noun (as far as I can think, this is almost entirely restricted to the phrase “all weathers”), or it can be the third-person present tense of the verb.
Do not confuse these different uses of the -s ending. They are grammatically unrelated. It is merely coincidence that in modern English they have the same form.
“weathered” and “weathering” are verb forms only, though they can sometimes behave adjectivally. Oh, and “weathering” can sometimes behave like a noun too, as is usual with “-ing” forms.
