Example sentence

كما يقال ماء جار ورجل ميت وإن لم يفعل الموت بل لما قام به من الموت نسب إليه على جهة الفعل

Just as it is said, 'flowing water' and 'a dead man,' even if he did not cause death but because death occurred in him, he is attributed as the doer of the action.

مَيِّتٌ dead

An adjective 'dead' on a doer-noun-like pattern, agreeing with 'man' as indefinite. The point of the example: it looks like a doer-form yet the man did not do dying, illustrating how a form can name a quality that merely befell its subject.
