Etymology of PURSUING
The word "pursuing" has its roots in the Middle English term "poursuen", which originated from Old French "poursivre". The Old French term comes from the Latin word "prosequi", where "pro" means "forward" and "sequi" means "to follow". This Latin word evolved into "pursue" in English, and the participle form "pursuing" emerged later.
