覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
transcribe「転写する、書き起こす」の -ing 形。語末の黙字 e を落として transcribing とし、発音も原形の /aɪb/ に /ɪŋ/ が続く。trans-「越えて・移して」＋scribe「書く」から、音声を文字へ移す場面を想像する。transcribing an interview／recording が典型。
Begin with transcribe and its useful word parts: trans- suggests movement across or into another form, while scribe relates to writing. Transcribing therefore often means moving spoken information into written text. Picture a researcher listening to an interview and typing every word. Common objects are “an interview,” “a recording,” “old letters,” and “notes.” Grammatically, transcribing is the present participle or gerund. It is formed by dropping the silent final e of transcribe before adding -ing: transcribe becomes transcribing. The /b/ at the end of the base remains audible before the /ɪŋ/ ending.

transcribing の語源・成り立ち Etymology
transcribing はラテン語 transcribere に由来し、trans-「越えて」+ scribere「書く」で成ります。原義は「別の場所へ書き写す」で、そこから音声や文字を転写する意味になりました。関連語は transcript, describe。
Transcribing is formed from transcribe by dropping its silent final e and adding -ing. Transcribe comes from Latin transcribere, combining trans-, “across” or “from one place to another,” with scribere, “to write.” Its earliest central idea was copying writing from one place or form into another. The modern sense includes representing recorded or spoken language as written text. Transcript and describe share the Latin writing root.
