解説 Definition

awarding は award「授与する」の現在分詞で、賞・学位・奨学金などを、審査や認定を経て正式に与える行為を表します。be動詞と組み合わせて進行形を作れます。

Awarding is the act of formally giving a prize, degree, scholarship, contract, compensation, or other recognized benefit after a decision or assessment. As a present participle, it presents that official act as ongoing or connects it with another verb.

使い方 Usage

  • award something to someone で「何かを誰かに授与する」を表します。 Use award something to someone to name the thing awarded and its recipient.
  • award someone something の語順も使えます。例:award students scholarships。 You can also use award someone something, as in award students scholarships.

使い分け Common distinctions

  • give が広く「与える」を表すのに対し、award は通常、審査や認定などの正式な決定を伴います。 Give broadly means to provide something; award usually implies a formal decision based on assessment or recognition.

覚え方のコツ Memory Tip

award に -ing をそのまま付けて awarding。末尾の d は重ねません。式典で賞や学位を正式に渡す場面と結び付けましょう。

Add -ing directly to award to make awarding; do not double the final d. Picture a ceremony where prizes or degrees are formally presented.

例文

The university was awarding degrees to hundreds of graduates.

大学は何百人もの卒業生に学位を授与していた。

They are awarding scholarships to students with financial need.

彼らは経済的な支援を必要とする学生たちに奨学金を授与している。

awarding の語源・成り立ち Etymology

アングロ・ノルマン・フランス語 awarder(判定する)に由来し、古フランス語 esgarder(注視する・判断する)から派生。語根にゲルマン系の ward(見張る)を含む。関連語に guard(守る)、reward(報いる)がある。「見定めた上で与える」が原義。

Awarding is formed from award and the present-participle suffix -ing. Award entered English from Anglo-Norman awarder, referring to a judgment or formal decision, and is related to Old French forms meaning “to consider” or “examine.” Its history includes the Germanic element represented by ward, associated with watching or guarding. The noun and verb later developed the familiar sense of a prize or of officially granting something after judgment. Awarding preserves that idea of a considered, formal grant.
