Etymology
'ceaselessly-moving' originates from the combination of 'ceaselessly' and 'moving', where 'ceaselessly' means 'without stopping' and 'moving' means 'in motion'.
'Ceaselessly' comes from the word 'ceaseless', which evolved from the Old French 'cesser', meaning 'to stop'. 'Moving' comes from the Old English 'mōfan', meaning 'to change position'.
Initially, 'ceaselessly' meant 'without pause', and 'moving' meant 'to change position'. Together, they describe something that is in constant motion.
