The word listing derives from the verb list, which originated in Middle English (listen, meaning "to please, desire, or choose") and later evolved to mean "to register or record items systematically." The suffix -ing transforms the verb into a noun denoting either the action (e.g., "the listing of names") or its result (e.g., "a property listing"). The modern sense reflects organizational or cataloging functions.
