Root Explanation

Inpouring → It is formed from "in-" (meaning into) and "pour" (from Old French *pourer*, meaning to flow or cause to flow) and the suffix "-ing" (indicating the action or process). The word "inpouring" describes the action of flowing into a space or area.

Memory Tip

Think of something flowing 'into' ('in-') a space, like water 'pouring' in — that's what inpouring means.
