I saw your latest art piece, the rendering of the landscape was amazing!

Thanks! I really enjoyed capturing the colors in that scene.

I can tell, the rendering adds so much depth to the whole picture.

Root Explanation

Rendering → It is formed from "render" (from Old French *rendre*, meaning to give back or return) and "-ing" (a suffix used to form present participles). The word "rendering" refers to the act of giving back or providing something, often in the context of artistic or technical representation.

Memory Tip

Think of the word 'render' meaning to 'give back' or 'return' something, and the '-ing' shows it's an ongoing action. So, rendering is the ongoing act of providing or giving back.
