Pronunciation: [ɛkspˈa͡ɪ͡əɹɪŋ] (IPA) 
The word "expiring" is spelled as /ɛkˈspaɪrɪŋ/. It is derived from the word "expire," which means to come to an end or to die. In this case, the suffix "-ing" is added to indicate that the action of expiring is ongoing or currently in progress. The first syllable is pronounced as "ek," with a short "e" sound followed by a "k" sound. The second syllable is pronounced as "spy-r-ing," with a long "i" sound and a soft "g" sound.
Expiring is a term that is often used to describe the act of coming to an end or reaching the conclusion of a specified period of time or validity. It commonly refers to the expiration or expiration date of a document, contract, agreement, license, subscription, or any other time-limited arrangement.
The term can also be applied to the declining or cessation of effectiveness, validity, or usefulness. For instance, when a product, such as medication or perishable food, reaches its expiration date, it is considered as expiring, meaning it is no longer safe or suitable for use. Similarly, an expiring warranty implies that the coverage or benefits of the warranty are ending soon, and after that point, repairs or replacements may no longer be available free of charge.
In the context of legal matters, expiring may refer to the termination of a statute of limitations, which sets a specific time frame during which legal action can be initiated. Once the statute of limitations period has expired, legal claims or charges cannot be pursued.
Overall, the term "expiring" conveys the idea of something coming to an end, either due to the lapse of time, termination of a period, or loss of validity or effectiveness.

The word "expiring" is derived from the Latin word "exspirare", which can be broken down into two parts: "ex", meaning "out", and "spirare", meaning "to breathe". Hence, "exspirare" originally meant "to breathe out" or "to exhale". Over time, the meaning of the word evolved to indicate the act of breathing out one's last breath or dying. Eventually, it acquired the more general sense of coming to an end or reaching a conclusion, which is the meaning we associate with "expiring" today.
