Etymology of REFURNISHINGS
The word "refurnishings" is formed by adding the suffix "-ings" to the base word "refurnish". The etymology of "refurnish" can be traced back to the Old French word "refourniss-", which was formed by combining the prefix "re-" (meaning again or back) with the verb "fornir" (meaning to furnish). "Fornir" itself originated from the Latin word "fornire", which meant to supply or equip. Therefore, "refurnish" implies the act of supplying or equipping something again or providing it with new furnishings. The addition of the suffix "-ings" simply transforms the verb "refurnish" into a noun, referring to the collective set of items used to furnish or supply something again.
