- 1童軍活動、童軍運動（台灣用「童軍」；中國大陸較常說「童子軍」）
Scouting is the set of activities that Scouts take part in: camping, hiking, tying knots, helping in the community, and earning badges. It names the whole way of doing things, not one single game. When someone says they are “in scouting,” they mean the youth movement, not that they are secretly watching a place. Though actually, the verb scout still means to go and look around for information — armies, football clubs, and companies all scout — so the same family of words can talk about searching as well as about tents and badges. For , the youth-movement meaning is the one this word is usually teaching. The tone is neutral and everyday.
組成scout + -ing. Scout here is the youth group (and, older, a person sent to look ahead); -ing turns it into the activities.
