Etimologia (Inglese)

From Middle High German sterben, from Old High German sterban, from Proto-Germanic *sterbaną, itself either from Proto-Indo-European *(s)terp- (“to lose force; lose sensibility, become numb; be dead, be motionless”) or from Proto-Indo-European *sterbʰ- (“to be stiff, become stiff”). Cognate with Low German starven, staarven, Dutch sterven, West Frisian stjerre, English starve.
