Etymology of TRANSCENDING

The word "transcending" derives from the Latin word "transcendere", which is a combination of the prefix "trans", meaning "across" or "beyond", and the verb "scandere", meaning "to climb" or "to go". Therefore, "transcendere" can be understood as "to climb or go beyond or across". The verb "transcendere" was later adapted into the English language, forming the word "transcend", which means "to go beyond the limits" or "to surpass". From this, the present participle form "transcending" was formed, indicating an ongoing or continuous act of surpassing limitations or boundaries.
