Etymology

The word 'gushing' originated from the Middle English word 'gusshen', which means 'to issue suddenly'. It has been used in English since the 14th century to describe the act of flowing out rapidly. Over time, the word also took on the additional meaning of expressing enthusiasm or praise. The dual usage of the word highlights its versatility in capturing both the physical act of flowing and the emotional act of praising.
