Etymology
From the verb 'markieren' (to mark) + the suffix '-ung', which forms nouns. It literally means 'the act of marking' or 'the result of marking'.
Memory Tips
The 'markier-' part is like 'mark'. The '-ung' suffix in German often creates a feminine noun (die) and refers to the action of the verb, similar to '-ing' in English (e.g., a marking).
