Eulogising

/ˈjuːlədʒaɪzɪŋ/ verb

Definition

British spelling, present participle: the act of praising someone or something highly.

Etymology

Formed by adding the '-ing' suffix to 'eulogise,' preserving British spelling. The '-ing' form marks the verb as ongoing or as a gerund (noun form of a verb).

Kelly Says

The '-ing' suffix is one of English's oldest features, inherited from Germanic languages, and it's been used continuously for over 1,000 years—making it one of the most stable parts of English grammar.
