解説 Definition
excluding は exclude（除外する）の動名詞・現在分詞で、「除いて」「除くと」という意味で前置詞のようにも使われます。人数、金額、条件などから一部を含めないことを表します。

覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
excluding は exclude の -ing 形で、語末の黙字 e を落として exclude → excluding、発音は /ɪkˈskluːdɪŋ/ です。excluding tax、excluding me、excluding Sundays のように名詞の前に置くと「〜を除いて」。including が範囲内に入れるのに対し、excluding は外に締め出す感覚です。
Excluding is formed from exclude by dropping the final silent e and adding -ing: exclude becomes excluding, pronounced /ɪkˈskluːdɪŋ/. Picture closing a boundary with one item left outside. This matches its Latin components: ex- suggests “out,” and the root is connected with closing. Learn it through practical combinations such as excluding tax, excluding me, and excluding Sundays. In these examples it works much like a preposition meaning “not including.” Contrast it directly with including, which places the named item inside the stated group or total.
例文

There are ten people in the room, excluding me.
私を除くと、その部屋には10人います。
The shop is open every day, excluding Sundays.

excluding の語源・成り立ち Etymology
excluding は exclude の現在分詞で、ラテン語 ex-「外へ」+ claudere「閉じる」に由来します。もともと「あるものを外へ閉め出す」感覚なので「除いて」の意味になり、include や conclude も同じ語根です。
Excluding is the present participle of exclude, formed by removing the final silent e before adding -ing. Exclude comes from Latin excludere, built from ex-, “out,” and claudere, “to close.” Its basic image is therefore closing someone or something out. English words such as include and conclude contain a related Latin root, although their prefixes produce different meanings. The preposition-like use of excluding developed naturally from the sense “leaving out.”
