sired
Produced as father
Sired is the past tense of sire, meaning to father offspring.
The term applies primarily to male animals, especially those bred for specific traits: The stallion sired dozens of champions.
For humans, sired sounds formal or old-fashioned: He sired three sons before his death.
The word emphasizes biological paternity rather than parental involvement.
