disicio

Latin

Alternative forms

Etymology

From dis- +‎ iaciō (“throw, hurl”). The double-s spelling and pronunciation probably represents palatalisation + doubling or progressive assimilation of the consonant cluster.

Pronunciation

Note: the first syllable is always long by position due to the generally unwritten /j/, thus disiciō can be found written as dīsiciō in some editions or dictionaries, which however doesn't signify the length of the vowel itself.

Verb

disiciō (present infinitive disicere, perfect active disiēcī, supine disiectum); third conjugation iō-variant

  1. to throw or drive asunder; scatter, disperse, break up, divide; dishevel; spread
  2. (military) to disperse, scatter or rout the enemy
  3. to destroy, bring to naught; thwart, overthrow, frustrate

Usage notes

Often confused with and difficult to tell apart from dēiciō/dējiciō in the manuscripts.
