         DefinitionShort: to go out of existence gradually

         Glosses: to fade away

         Comments: In many languages it is simply not possible to speak of a ‘rich man fading away.’ Colors may fade, but not a person, and therefore it may be necessary to shift the figure of speech, for example, ‘the rich man will end up being no one’ or ‘the rich man will finally count for nothing.’
