Latin

Etymology

From earlier eira (Plautus), from Proto-Italic *eizā, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁eys- (compare Ancient Greek οἶστρος (oîstros), Lithuanian aistrà (“violent passion”), Avestan 𐬀𐬉𐬴𐬨𐬀 (aēṣ̌ma, “anger”)).

Pronunciation

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): /ˈiː.ra/, [ˈiːrä]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /ˈi.ra/, [ˈiːrä]

Noun

īra f (genitive īrae); first declension

1. ire, anger, wrath

   Synonyms: furia, indignātiō

   Dies irae. ― Day of wrath

   • 29 BCE – 19 BCE, Virgil, Aeneid 1.11:

     Tantaene animīs caelestibus īrae?

     [Is there] not such [terrible] wrath in celestial spirits?
     Can there [be] such rage in heavenly hearts?
     Did the heaven-dwellers [harbor] so much anger?
     [Is there] resentment so [awful] in the spirits above?
     How could the gods [retain] such wrath?
     (Does vengeful anger, a base human emotion, also impassion divine beings? The enclitic particle “-ne” [tantae-ne] marks the Latin phrase as a question, and ellipsis – the omission of a word or phrase that can be inferred from context – intensifies varied translations.)
