The word "consisting" is derived from the verb "consist", which dates back to the 16th century. It comes from the Latin word "consistere", which is a combination of "con-" (meaning "together") and "sistere" (meaning "to place, take a stand"). Therefore, "consist" originally meant "to place together" or "to be composed of". Over time, the verb "consist" developed into its present participial form "consisting", which retains the same meaning of something being composed of different elements or parts.
