覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
shovingはshoveの現在分詞・動名詞で、語末の無音のeを落として-ingを付ける。発音はshoveの母音/ʌ/を保つ。pushより乱暴で強い押し方を表し、shove the door、shove people、crowds shoving toward the exitのように、肩や手で押しのける場面と結び付ける。
Shoving is formed from shove by dropping the final silent e and adding -ing. The vowel sound remains the same as in shove. Imagine someone using a shoulder or both hands to force a heavy door open, or people pushing roughly in a crowded line. This physical scene captures the extra force and lack of care suggested by shove. Compare it with pushing, which is neutral and can be gentle; shoving normally sounds rough, abrupt, or aggressive. Common patterns include “shoving the door,” “shoving people aside,” and “the crowd kept shoving.”
例文
He was shoving the door with his shoulder.
彼は肩でドアを強く押していました。
Stop shoving people in the line.
列に並んでいる人を突き飛ばすのはやめなさい。
The crowd kept shoving toward the exit.
群衆は出口に向かって押し合い続けました。

shoving の語源・成り立ち Etymology
古英語 scūfan(押す)に由来し、ゲルマン祖語 *skeubaną にさかのぼる。「力を入れて押しのける」が原義。関連語に shove(押す)、shuffle(足を引きずる=押し動かす動作)がある。-ing は進行・動名詞の接尾辞。
Shoving is the -ing form of shove, created by dropping the final silent e before adding -ing. Shove comes from Old English scūfan, “to push or thrust,” and is related to other Germanic words expressing forceful movement. Its long history preserves the central physical idea of pushing something away or forward with force. Modern English also uses shove figuratively, but the examples here retain the direct sense of rough physical pushing.
