覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形 exclaim に -ing を付けた現在分詞・動名詞で、語末の m は重ねません。発音は原形 /ɪkˈskleɪm/ に /ɪŋ/ が続きます。exclaim with joy、exclaim in surprise、exclaim at the sight のように、強い感情が思わず声として外へ出る場面と結び付けて覚えます。
Exclaiming is formed by adding -ing to exclaim; the final m is not doubled. Its pronunciation keeps the base sound /ɪkˈskleɪm/ and adds /ɪŋ/. Connect it with emotion coming out as an immediate voice: a child exclaiming with joy, someone exclaiming in surprise, or tourists exclaiming at a beautiful sight. Unlike ordinary speaking, exclaiming suggests a sudden, strongly felt reaction, often expressed more loudly than usual.

exclaiming の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語 exclamare（叫び出す）から。ex-（外へ）＋ clamare（叫ぶ）で「思わず声を上げる」意。関連語: claim（主張する）、proclaim（宣言する）。感情が外に溢れ出て叫ぶニュアンスを持つ。
Exclaim comes through French and Latin from Latin exclamare, meaning “to cry out.” It combines ex-, “out,” with clamare, “to shout or call.” Exclaiming is the regular -ing form of that verb and preserves the image of emotion being voiced outward. Proclaim is historically related through the same Latin verb clamare, although its modern meaning emphasizes public announcement rather than a spontaneous emotional cry.
