解説 Definition
resulting は result（結果として生じる）の現在分詞・動名詞で、結果として生じるという意味です。名詞の前に置いて、ある原因から起きた影響や変化を説明するときによく使われます。
Resulting describes something that occurs or exists as the consequence of an earlier event, action, or condition. It is the present participle of result and is often placed before nouns such as damage, change, noise, or problem.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
result に -ing をそのまま付けた形で、原形 /rɪˈzʌlt/ に対し resulting /rɪˈzʌltɪŋ/ と一音節増えます。the resulting damage、noise、problem のように名詞の前で「前述の原因から生じた」と示す用法を覚えます。following が時間的な「次の」なのに対し、resulting は因果関係を明示します。
Add -ing directly to result to make resulting; no letter is dropped or doubled. Its pronunciation adds the syllable /ɪŋ/ after the final /t/. In the target use, it commonly appears before a noun: resulting damage, resulting noise, or resulting problem. Imagine an arrow from a stated cause to its consequence—the noun after resulting is what came out of that cause. Do not treat it as merely meaning “next.” Following can indicate sequence, but resulting emphasizes cause and effect. The pattern “cause X, and the resulting Y” is especially useful for remembering both its position and meaning.

resulting の語源・成り立ち Etymology
resulting は result に -ing が付いた形で、語源の核 result は中世ラテン語 resultare に由来する。これは re-「後ろへ」＋ salire「跳ぶ」からでき、「跳ね返る」が原義だった。そこから「前の出来事から生じる」と意味が伸び、result, resilient も同じ系統の語である。
Resulting is formed from result plus -ing. Result came through French from Medieval Latin resultare, originally “to spring back” or “rebound.” Resultare was formed from re-, “back,” and saltare, “to leap,” a frequentative form related to Latin salire, “to jump.” The idea developed from something rebounding from an action to something arising as its consequence. In modern resulting, that historical movement survives abstractly as an effect emerging from an earlier cause.
