SayBAJ-ing/ˈbæd͡ʒɪŋ/
- 1Present participle of badge.
The company is badging its rebranded scooters before the spring launch.

Note
The -ing form carries every use of the verb, and as a gerund it names the activity itself: fitting a product with its emblem, showing someone a badge, or getting into a restricted area by presenting your own. That last use can stand without an object (staff badging through security), while the first two take one. The silent e of badge drops before -ing, as in judging.
