Etymology
The word 'apprize' originates from Middle English 'apprisen', which is derived from the Old French term 'apriser,' meaning to value or assess. The concept of valuing property or goods can be traced back to economic activities in medieval times when trade and commerce began to flourish. Initially, the term was used in legal and financial documents to indicate the valuation of items for sale or taxation. Over the centuries, as markets evolved, so did the practices surrounding apprizing, leading to the formal methods we see in real estate and inventory evaluations today. The suffix '-ing' indicates the ongoing action and has been a standard grammatical formation in English, allowing for the use of 'apprizing' in various contexts, especially in professional settings.
