Linda Vester mentioned earlier today on Fox News that the tarot death card was actually from a French card set and had the word 'le morte' on it (Fr. for death).
I posted this on the Fr. sniper thread but thought it would be of interest here...

"Le morte" is not standard French. Standard French for "death" is "la mort". Maybe it's a dialectical or archaic form.
