Etymology

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *mer-, *mir-. Compare Latvian mirt (“die”), Old Church Slavonic мрѣти, мьрѫ (mrěti, mĭrǫ, “die”), Russian умереть, умру (umeretʹ, umru, “die”). The Baltic forms are from the zero-grade of Proto-Indo-European *mer-, *mr̥- (“to die”).^[1]

The -sta present was introduced at the Balto-Slavic stage (compare Latvian mirsta); the -š- is due to the RUKI law. The acute past/present root is analogous with gim̃ti, gi̇̀msta, gi̇̀mė, although is of unclear motivation.

Pronunciation

IPA^(key): [ˈmʲɪrʲ.tʲɪ]

mir̃ti (third-person present tense mi̇̀ršta, third-person past tense mi̇̀rė)
