Etymology of DIS CUMBERED

The word "disencumbered" is derived from the combination of two root words: "dis-" and "encumber".

The prefix "dis-" is a Latin origin meaning "apart" or "away". It is often used to indicate negation or reversal of a condition.

On the other hand, "encumber" comes from the Old French word "encombrer", which means "to block" or "to hinder". This, in turn, traces back to the Latin word "incumbere", meaning "to lean upon" or "to burden".

Therefore, when combined, "disencumbered" conveys the idea of being freed or relieved from burdens, obstacles, or encumbrances.
