Is sedimentary a noun or verb?

"Sedimentary" is primarily an adjective. It describes something that is related to or formed by sediment.

Here are some examples:

* Sedimentary rocks: Rocks formed from the accumulation and cementation of sediment.

* Sedimentary environment: A place where sediment is deposited, such as a river bed or a lake.

* Sedimentary processes: The processes that lead to the formation of sedimentary rocks.

While "sedimentary" can sometimes be used as a noun, it's less common and usually refers to a specific type of rock.

For example, you might say: "The geologist studied the sedimentaries of the Grand Canyon."

However, it's more common to use the phrase "sedimentary rocks" instead.
