suspirar
/suspiˈɾaɾ/ · B2 · verb
to sigh
💨 su + spirar = sub + spirare: to breathe out from deep below
From Latin suspirare: sub (under) + spirare (to breathe). The same spir- root is in English respire, inspire and expire, so a sigh is just a breath drawn up from deep down. Suspiro is the noun: a sigh.
