放尿
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
pissing は動詞 piss「小便をする」に -ing を付けた現在分詞・動名詞です。語末が二重子音になる変化はなく、piss＋ing のままつなげ、語頭の piss と同じ発音を保ちます。urinating よりかなり下品なので、医療・丁寧な場面では urinating、日常の婉曲表現なら peeing を選びます。
Pissing is formed directly from piss plus -ing; no letter is dropped or doubled because piss already ends in double s. It functions as either a present participle, as in someone is pissing, or a gerund naming the activity. Keep its register firmly attached to the word: it is coarse and often offensive, not a neutral medical term. Peeing is informal but generally less harsh, while urinating is the standard neutral or clinical choice. Remember the contrast by situation: casual and mild, peeing; medical or formal, urinating; deliberately crude, pissing.

pissing の語源・成り立ち Etymology
古フランス語pissier（排尿する）から13世紀に英語に入った語で、排尿音を模した擬音語が起源とされる。-ingは現在分詞・動名詞の接尾辞。関連語：piss（尿）、pisspot（古語で便器）。中世では下品な語ではなく日常語として広く使われていた。
Pissing consists of the verb piss and the suffix -ing, which forms present participles and gerunds. Piss entered Middle English from Old French pissier, meaning to urinate. The deeper origin is uncertain, though the form has often been regarded as imitative of the sound of urination. The English word was historically more ordinary than it is today, but it later developed a distinctly vulgar or coarse register. The -ing form preserves both that meaning and register.
