覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
price を動詞「値段を付ける」と捉え、語末の e を取って -ing を付けた pricing は「値段を決める行為・仕組み」です。review pricing、clear pricing、pricing strategy のように事業や料金プランの文脈で使います。単一商品の具体的な値段 price より、価格体系や決定方法に焦点があると覚えましょう。
Think of pricing as price used as a verb—“to set a price”—plus -ing. The final silent e is dropped before the suffix is added. Pricing therefore focuses on the act, method, or system of deciding prices, not merely on one numerical price. Learn common combinations such as clear pricing, review our pricing, pricing strategy, and subscription pricing. If a plan costs ten dollars, ten dollars is its price; the business reasoning and structure that produced that amount belong to pricing. This distinction is especially useful when discussing companies, services, product plans, and customer choices.

pricing の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語pretium（価値・代価）からフランス語prisを経て英語priceに。接尾辞-ingで「価格をつける行為」を意味する。「物の価値を定める」が本質。関連語：priceless（値がつけられない）、precious（貴重な）。
Pricing is formed from the verb price by dropping its final silent e and adding -ing. Price came into English through Old French pris from Latin pretium, meaning “price,” “value,” or “reward.” As a verb, price means to assign or determine a monetary value. The -ing form developed naturally into a noun for that activity or its organized system. Precious is historically related through Latin, although its modern meaning emphasizes great value rather than price-setting.
