Etymology: "Parsings" is the plural of "parsing," so it refers to multiple acts or instances of the process of analysing a sentence or text into its grammatical parts. The root word is "parse," which is the verb from which "parsing" is derived. Because "parsing" is a noun form of that verb, its plural carries the same sense: each instance of breaking down a text into its components.
