1. 1

    Saddening is the -ing form of , so it still means “to make someone feel sad,” but you meet it in two ways. As part of the verb, it is the action happening now: the news is saddening her. More often it works like a describing word: a saddening story is a story that makes people feel sad. It names the feeling the thing causes, not a person who is already sad (that person is just sad). It is a quiet, rather formal word, closer to writing than to chat.
