Tire

To become or cause someone to become physically or mentally tired. As a noun (different meaning), it is the rubber ring around a wheel that touches the ground.

The verb comes from Old English 'tēorian' meaning 'to fail, become weary.' The noun 'tire' is a shortened form of 'attire,' once used for the iron rim of a wheel, later for rubber. These two words have different origins but ended up with the same spelling.
