solving
UK: ˈsɒlvɪŋ | US: ˈsɑːlvɪŋ
vt. 1. Finding an answer or explanation for (a problem or question).
n. 2. The act or process of finding solutions to problems.
The word "solving" originates from the Latin solvere, meaning "to loosen" or "untie." This metaphorically evolved into "resolving a problem" in English, as if untying a knot. The suffix -ing turns the verb "solve" into a noun or present participle, emphasizing the ongoing action or result of finding solutions. The logic reflects a progression from physical loosening to abstract problem resolution.
