Restraining is the -ing form of 'restrain,' which means to hold someone or something back, or to stop yourself or someone else from doing something. You'll meet this word most often in the legal phrase 'restraining order' — a court document that legally forces someone to stay away from another person, often used to protect someone from an ex-partner or a dangerous person.
組成re- (back) + Latin 'stringere' (to pull tight, bind) — the idea of pulling something back tight so it can't move.
