From the Latin verb spirare we get respiration which is the entire process of air management, inspiration which is to breathe air in and expiration which is to breathe air out. For me, this is transitive.

What is breathed out is air.

This is one of the involuntary human processes. Can I stop it directly, though children try this sometimes as part of the tantrum pattern of the early years? They go pink when breathing in. And it does not get worse.

I. 1680 the OED more (Flaherty, 1719) says that the intransitive

use is obsolete : 1729 R. Savage Wanderer i. The smoke reaches the top of the bor-d rock above, and is vaporized. The smoke permeates the earth’s surface until it has been vaporized.

According to an example of transitive use, 2

I. To breathe one’s last breath, die.

What is an involuntary act? One cannot kill oneself by stopping thinking. And life must occur. How do I be able to breathe one’s last if I don’t have enough time in the day? I wish to expire, but it isn’t up to me to do it.

I may wish to hurry the process by jumping from a height. I can’t stop breathing, if I wish to. Where are the frontal lobes regulated?

I believe the misunderstanding, and hence the slight complication of wording came about by the translation of apheken from enlighten (d.c). Strong 863 in Matthew 27:50, and similar places in the bible.

What does the KJV means by ‘give up the ghost’? Just because Jesus did this does not mean I can do it all again.

What was original usage of written words in previous generation?

I believe that death is not an active matter, when it arrives, when it is in history! Can we commit suicide? On this ground the word ‘expire’ does not have an ‘active’ (expire) counterpart. Therefore the world does not think so. If I can’t, deliberately, ‘expire myself’, then I definitely cannot.

How do OED terms refer to time expiring, or phase expiring, or rights and titles expiring or all involuntary matters but can say that when a space of time has been agreed, then – when it ceases – it can be said to have expired.

The one who is in a hurry and can not do something to have final days will be, but the other will never ‘expire’ time. Which is that time, which comes to an end, is more precise and that time takes time to come to an end than before.? It cannot be hurried.

So the only active verb I can suggest as a counterpart to “expire” is “terminate”.

If this was applied to someone, it would be an act of murder, of course. Or, in the special instance of switching off hospital equipment, it would be an act agreed upon by authorities : an admission that life had, actually, ceased and the body was being kept artificially supported by mechanical means.

When a foetus is ‘terminated’, it is also the verb used on occasions when it causes death.

TERMINATE :

a. To bring to an end, put an end to, cause to cease.
