To be a University Wit...

To be very academic, the suffix '-ment' usually indicates the name of process pertaining to a verb. Eg: Judge - Judgement. Attain - Attainment. Entertain - Entertainment

But Cement is quite tricky... So is Lament...

Could you continue following a similar string of thought and find an answer to those.
