Etymology of SUSPIRING

The word "suspiring" comes from the Latin word "suspirare", which is a combination of "sus" (meaning "upward") and "spirare" (meaning "to breathe"). In Latin, "suspirare" referred to the act of sighing or breathing deeply, often with a sense of longing or desire. This Latin term eventually evolved into the Old French word "suspirer" before making its way into Middle English as "suspiring" in the 14th century.
