Nguồn gốc từ
ine-pro From Middle English mitigaten, from mitigat + -en, borrowed from Latin mītigātus, the perfect passive participle of mītigō (to make soft, ripe; to tame, pacify), from mītis (gentle, mild, ripe) + -igō (to do, make), of uncertain origin, but perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *meh₁y- (mild, soft).
