mittere

This is the past participle of mittere, whose uses included the ideas that in modern language we would describe as “to put, to send, to throw.”

The Missional Path

For example, a “missive” (which is a synonym of letter or message) came from the Medieval Latin form of missivae, which in turn was a feminine plural of missivus, which came from the Latin missus, which was the past participle of mittere.
