It implies the action of pulling, ripping, or dividing with force, often indicating a certain level of violence or abruptness.

The word "discerp" comes from the Latin term "discerpere", which is derived from the combination of two Latin words: "dis" meaning "apart" or "asunder", and "carpere" meaning "to pluck" or "to seize".
