Etymology of DIS SIMILITUDES

The word "dissimilitudes" is derived from the combination of the prefix "dis-" and the noun "similitude".

1. "Dis-" is a prefix of Latin origin that means "not" or "opposite of". It is a variant of the prefix "de-" which has the same meaning. In this case, "dis-" is used to negate or deny the presence of "similitude".

2. "Similitude" comes from the Old French word "similitude", derived from the Latin word "similitudo", which means "likeness" or "resemblance". The Latin term is formed by combining "similis" meaning "like" with the suffix "-tudo" denoting the quality or state of being.
