Etymology of REQUESTING

The word "requesting" is derived from the verb "request". The etymology of "request" can be traced back to the Latin word "requirere". "Requirere" is a combination of the prefix "re-" meaning "back" or "again", and "quaerere" meaning "to seek" or "to ask". In Late Latin, "requirere" developed into "requestare", which meant "to ask again" or "to demand". Over time, the word evolved into "request" in English and is used to express the act of asking for something or making a polite demand. "Requesting", as the present participle form of "request", denotes the ongoing action of making a request.
