changing
/ˈtʃeɪndʒɪŋ/
The word "changing" is most commonly used as the present participle of the verb "change." It can act as a continuous verb (e.g., "I am changing") or as an adjective to describe something that doesn't stay the same. When used as an adjective, it often appears in compound phrases like "ever-changing" to emphasize that something is shifting constantly. Be careful not to confuse the action of altering something (like a habit) with the action of replacing something (like clothes). Both use the word "changing," but the context tells you which one is meant.
