Etymology of UNDERLYING
The word "underlying" originates from the combination of two Old English words: "under" + "lie".
The term "under" comes from Old English "under" which means "in a lower position or place, below".
The term "lie" is derived from Old English "licgan" meaning "to be situated or positioned".
Therefore, when "under" is combined with "lie", it forms "underlying", which refers to something that lies beneath, or is situated below something else.
