Etymology

The word 'probing' originated from the Middle English 'proben' or 'proben' meaning 'to test or examine'. It has its roots in the Old French 'prober' and the Latin 'probare', both of which carry the sense of 'to test, prove, or approve'. Over time, 'probing' evolved to encompass the idea of thorough examination or investigation, particularly in scientific, medical, and exploratory contexts.

See also: probes, unprobed.
