Seemingly misplaced translations to be checked

The currently remaining translations to be checked of tire as a verb with etymology 1 (meaning 'to dress or adorn'), namely to Dutch, French, Ido and Italian, all look like they really mean 'to become sleepy or weary'. I'm thus moving them to etymology 2 and leaving them to be checked by someone with proper knowledge of these languages. Splibubay 10:25, 21 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

The wheel-tire word is of Germanic origin, from the same root as zieren, to decorate, to attire. Further etymology there. 24.108.56.72 18:35, 18 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
