解説 Definition
jumping は jump（跳ぶ、ジャンプする）の現在分詞・動名詞です。体を地面から離して跳ぶ動作や、その運動を表すときに使います。

覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形 jump にそのまま -ing を付けた現在分詞・動名詞で、jumping /ˈdʒʌmpɪŋ/ となります。Jumping is part of the warm-up では「跳ぶこと」という名詞、are jumping では進行中の動作です。jump over a line のように、地面を離れて障害物を越える場面と一緒に覚えましょう。
Connect jumping with the base verb jump. The spelling change is simple: add -ing directly, giving jumping, pronounced /ˈdʒʌmpɪŋ/. Picture both feet leaving the ground during a warm-up or while crossing a small line. In “The children are jumping,” the word forms part of a progressive verb and shows an action in progress. In “Jumping is part of the warm-up,” it is a gerund naming the activity itself. Learn it with patterns such as keep jumping, jumping exercise, and jump over something.
例文
The children are jumping in the park.

Jumping is part of the warm-up.
ジャンプすることは準備運動の一部です。
He kept jumping over the small line.

jumping の語源・成り立ち Etymology
jumping は jump に動作名詞の接尾辞 -ing が付いた形で、jump 自体は中英語以後の擬音的・擬態的な語と考えられ、語源ははっきりしません。関連語は jumper, jumpy。ぴょんと跳ねる動きそのものを名詞化したので、「跳躍・ジャンプ」の意味がそのまま出ています。
Jumping consists of jump and the suffix -ing, which forms present participles and names activities. Jump appeared in English in the early modern period, but its deeper origin is uncertain. It may have developed as an expressive word suggesting a sudden springing movement, though no single derivation is securely established. The -ing form therefore transparently means the action of jumping or an ongoing instance of that movement.
