Evincing

/ɪˈvɪnsɪŋ/ verb

Definition

Revealing or showing something clearly; demonstrating or proving the existence of a quality or feeling.

Etymology

Present participle of 'evince,' from Latin 'evincere.' The '-ing' ending creates the continuous form used in progressive tenses.

Kelly Says

Use 'evincing' in writing like this: 'The professor's detailed notes evincing years of research' sounds more literary than 'showing,' and the '-ing' form lets you describe an ongoing action.
