解説 Definition
presenting は present（発表する、提示する）の現在分詞・動名詞です。会議や授業などで資料や考えを人前で説明していることを表します。

覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形 present に -ing をそのまま付けた現在分詞・動名詞です。「発表する」の動詞では第二音節 sent に強勢を置き、名詞 present「贈り物」の第一音節強勢と区別します。present an idea、present results、present data の形で、情報を聴衆の前に出して分かりやすく説明する場面を覚えましょう。
Presenting is formed by adding -ing directly to present. For the verb meaning “show or explain,” stress the second syllable, unlike the noun present meaning “gift,” which stresses the first. Remember the central image of putting information before an audience. Typical combinations include presenting an idea, presenting sales results, and presenting clear data. The form may describe an action in progress, as in “She is presenting,” or act as a gerund, as in “Presenting clear data helped.”
例文

I will be presenting the sales results tomorrow.
私は明日、売上結果を発表する予定です。
Presenting clear data helped the audience understand.
分かりやすいデータを提示したことで、聴衆は理解しやすくなりました。

presenting の語源・成り立ち Etymology
presenting は present に進行・名詞化の -ing が付いた形で、present は古フランス語 presenter を経てラテン語 praesentare「目の前に差し出す」に由来します。prae-「前に」＋ esse「ある」の発想から「人前に示す」となり、同根語に presence, represent があります。
Presenting is the -ing form of the verb present. Present entered English through Old French presenter, from Latin praesentare, meaning to place before or make present. That verb is related to praesens, “being at hand or present,” built on the idea of being before someone. From physically bringing something forward, the word developed the sense of showing or explaining information to an audience.
