SUGGESTING Meaning and
Definition
-
Suggesting is a verb derived from the noun "suggestion" that refers to the act of putting forward or proposing an idea, opinion, or possibility. It involves offering advice, making recommendations, or proposing a course of action in a persuasive manner. When someone suggests something, they are typically offering their thoughts or opinions to guide or influence the thinking or decision-making process of others.
The act of suggesting often involves indirectly or subtly implying an idea rather than delivering it explicitly. It can be a way of offering a proposition or proposal without forcefully asserting it. Suggesting is usually done with the intention of providing input or advice without imposing one's own views or forcing compliance.
In communication, suggesting can take various forms. It can be expressed through words, tone of voice, body language, or context. It can be used to influence individuals, groups, or even policies and guidelines. Suggesting can be an effective tool in influencing behavior, shaping thinking, or guiding decision-making processes.
However, it is important to note that suggesting does not guarantee acceptance or implementation of the ideas put forth. Suggested ideas or recommendations can be accepted, rejected, or modified based on the recipient's evaluation and judgment. It is ultimately up to the individual or group receiving the suggestion to determine whether or not to act upon it.

Etymology of SUGGESTING
The word "suggesting" is a form of the verb "suggest", which originated from the Latin word "suggerere". "Suggerere" is a combination of two Latin words: "sub", meaning "from under" or "by", and "gerere", meaning "to carry" or "to bring". The combination of these words gave "suggerere" the meaning "to bring up something from beneath". Over time, this Latin term evolved into the Old French word "suggerer", and then eventually into "suggest" in English.
