The word "submitting" derives from the Old French verb "soumettre", which comes from the Latin word "submittere". The Latin term consists of the prefix "sub", meaning "under", and the verb "mittere", meaning "to send" or "to put". This combination indicates the idea of placing oneself under the authority or control of someone else. The term evolved over time through various languages and eventually became the English word "submit", with "submitting" as its present participle form.
