Maira (fly)

Maira is a verb in the Latin language meaning "to fly" or "to glide." It is the present active infinitive form of the verb volo, volare, volavi, volatus. As a first conjugation verb, volare follows the standard inflectional patterns for that class of verbs.

The word can be used to describe the action of birds, insects, or even objects moving through the air. In a broader sense, maira (as part of the infinitive volare) can also be used metaphorically to describe rapid movement or the swift passage of time.

It is important to note the distinction between volare (to fly) and other similar Latin verbs. While volare generally indicates a natural or effortless flight, other verbs might specify a type of flying or movement. The noun volatus derived from the verb signifies "flight."
