覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
depositing は deposit に -ing を付けた現在分詞・動名詞です。deposit は語末の黙字 e を落とす型ではないため、そのまま ing を加えます。発音では主に第2音節に強勢を置きます。depositing cash、depositing a check、depositing money の組み合わせで、銀行口座へ安全に「置き入れる」動作を思い浮かべます。
Use the base verb deposit, meaning to place something somewhere for storage or safekeeping, especially money in a bank account. Depositing is its regular -ing form: simply add -ing because deposit does not end in a silent e that must be removed. Picture money being firmly placed into an account. Common combinations include depositing cash, depositing a check, and depositing money online. The same “putting down or leaving” image also works when a river deposits sand or a machine deposits a layer of material, although the examples here focus on banking. It can function as a present participle or as a gerund.

depositing の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語の接頭辞de-（下へ）とponere（置く）に由来し、「下に置く→保管する」の意味から発展しました。同語根を持つ関連語にposition（位置）やrepository（保管庫）があります。「下にしっかり置く」イメージが、金銭や品物を安全に預ける現代の用法にすっきりとつながっています。
Depositing is formed from deposit plus -ing. Deposit came through French and Latin from depositum, related to the Latin verb deponere, “to put down” or “lay aside.” That verb combines de-, conveying down or away, with ponere, “to put or place.” The physical idea of placing something securely developed into the financial sense of entrusting money or valuables to a bank or other institution for safekeeping.
