Etymology: "Reviewings" is the plural of "reviewing," the form of the verb "review" used for the act of reviewing, and as a noun, for an instance of it. "Review" itself comes from the Old French "reveue," a noun meaning a looking over again, from "revoir" (to see again), which was built from the Latin prefix "re-" (again) and "videre" (to see). The idea at the core is simply a second look, which is why a review can be a formal inspection of troops or accounts as easily as a critique of a book.
