Etymology 2
From Ancient Greek μωρός (mōrós, “dull, slow”). Perhaps invented by Nero, for near-homophony with the genuine verb mŏror.

Verb
mōror (present infinitive mōrārī); first conjugation, deponent, no perfect or supine stem
- (hapax) I am a fool.
- c. 69 CE – 122 CE, Suetonius, De vita Caesarum VI 33, (The pun is that using the verb mŏrārī would mean 'He is no longer tarrying among people', meaning 'he died'.):
- Certē omnibus rērum verbōrumque contumēliīs mortuum īnsectātus est, modo stultitiae modo saevitiae arguēns; nam et mōrārī eum dēsīsse inter hominēs prōductā prīmā syllabā iocābātur multaque dēcrēta et cōnstitūta, ut īnsipientis atque dēlīrī, prō irritīs habuit.
- He certainly blamed the dead one [Claudius] with all insults, of deeds and of words, sometimes reproving his stupidity, other times his cruelty; for he jested about him having ceased to be a fool among people (with a lengthened first syllable) as well as having nullified many decrees and edicts of his, as those of an unwise and crazy one.
- Certē omnibus rērum verbōrumque contumēliīs mortuum īnsectātus est, modo stultitiae modo saevitiae arguēns; nam et mōrārī eum dēsīsse inter hominēs prōductā prīmā syllabā iocābātur multaque dēcrēta et cōnstitūta, ut īnsipientis atque dēlīrī, prō irritīs habuit.
