Etymology: "Resenters" is simply the plural of "resenter," which is formed from "resent" and the agent suffix "-er," meaning one who performs the action. The verb "resent" comes from the French "ressentir," meaning to feel strongly or to feel the effects of something, and English took it up with the sense of feeling indignation at a slight. Adding "-er" turns the verb into a person who habitually does that feeling, so a resenter is someone who keeps nursing grievances.
