Etymology of EMPHASIZING

The word "emphasizing" is the present participle form of the verb "emphasize". The term "emphasize" originated from the Greek word "emphainein", which means "to exhibit, display, or declare". It was formed by combining the prefix "en-" (meaning "in" or "on") with the Greek noun "phainein" (meaning "to show" or "to make visible"). Over time, the word evolved and found its way into Latin as "emphanēs" and then into English as "emphasize" in the mid-18th century.
