Breathing is the process of taking air in and sending it out, again and again. Your body keeps doing this even when you are not thinking about it. When a doctor talks about someone’s breathing, they mean how that air is moving — easy, noisy, too fast, or too slow. Singers, , and people doing yoga practise their breathing on purpose, to stay calm or to control the sound. This word names the whole process. One single in-and-out is a breath, not a breathing. Neutral, everyday, also used in medicine.
