moving
UK: ˈmuːvɪŋ | US: ˈmuːvɪŋ
adj. causing strong emotion; touching
adj. capable of motion or being moved
v. (present participle of move) changing physical position
The word moving originates from the verb move, derived from Middle English moven, Old French movoir, and Latin movēre (to set in motion). The suffix -ing forms the present participle, indicating ongoing action or a descriptive adjective. Over time, moving evolved to describe both physical motion and emotional impact, reflecting the dual nature of movement—external and internal.
