inspiring

/ˌɪnˈspaɪɝɪŋ/, /ˌɪnˈspaɪɹɪŋ/ adj

Providing inspiration; encouraging; stimulating.

Word Origin Inspiring comes from Latin inspirare 'to breathe into'—so when something inspires you, it breathes life into your mind. The root spirare 'to breathe' gives us spirit (breath, life force), respire (breathe again), perspire (breathe through skin), expire (breathe out, die), and conspire (breathe together, plot). So inspiring is literally 'breathing into' you.
