φέρωto carry, to bearEtymology
Ενδιαφέρων is the present participle of the verb ενδιαφέρω, built from the prefixes εν- (in) and δια- (through) attached to φέρω (to carry, to bear). The verb originally meant something like to bear upon or to concern, and the participle came to describe what draws or holds one's attention. This mirrors how English uses to interest, from Latin interesse, to describe something that concerns or engages a person.
