Definition
Present participle of 'compt,' meaning the act of counting, calculating, or reckoning.
Etymology
From 'compt' (to count) plus the present participle suffix '-ing,' representing the ongoing action of calculation from Old French 'compter.'
Kelly Says
The '-ing' form of archaic verbs reveals their full history—'compting' shows that 'compt' was genuinely used as a working verb before 'count' became standard.
