Etymology of CONTEMPLATING

The word "contemplating" originates from the Latin word "contemplatum", which is the past participle of the verb "contemplari". In Latin, "com-" implies an intensive or comprehensive action, and "templum" refers to a piece of ground consecrated for the taking of observations. Hence, "contemplari" originally meant "to survey" or "to observe carefully". Over time, the meaning of the word evolved to encompass the act of deep thought, reflection, or meditation. This led to the development of the modern English term "contemplating" which signifies the act of pondering or considering something deeply.
