Tricky to make an obvious translation because it depends on the context in which you use the word. I'm no expert of Latin, but if you take it from certain choice latin phrases, the word you're looking for is probably 'mortius' or 'mortis' (both meaning dead).

Here are some examples:

de mortius nil nisi bonum - Of the dead, say nothing but good (Horace)

Morituri te salutumus - We who are about to die salute you (Famous gladiator salute)

Dulce et Decorum est pro patria mori - It is sweet and proper to die for ones country (Wilfred Owen poem)

Causa mortis - Cause of death (legal term)
