Discommon is a verb that refers to the act of making something uncommon, rare or scarce. It denotes the process of causing an item, concept or experience to be less prevalent or widespread. It can also be used to describe an action that disrupts or hinders the usual or expected pattern or distribution of something.
In essence, “discommon” implies creating an exception or deviation from the norm, thereby altering the typical state of affairs. It suggests making an item or idea uncommon, either intentionally or unintentionally, by restricting its availability, popularity or accessibility. This can occur through various means, such as limiting production, imposing regulations, or introducing factors that diminish the desirability or demand of the object or concept.
Furthermore, “discommon” can be associated with disrupting a commonality or prevailing consensus. It implies challenging the established societal or cultural practices, norms, or expectations, resulting in a shift away from common or ordinary behavior. Such disruptions often occur when new ideas, technologies or movements emerge and challenge the status quo, ultimately leading to a discommoning effect.
Overall, “discommon” encompasses a broad range of actions, intentional or unsuspected, that result in making something uncommon, scarce or less prevalent. It entails deviating from the usual, disrupting the expected, and challenging the common in order to create exceptional or unconventional circumstances.
The word discommon comes from the Old French word descomun and the Latin word discommunis. Descomun is a combination of the prefix des- (meaning apart or away) and the Latin word communis, which means common or shared. The Latin word discommunis is derived from communis. In English, discommon was first recorded in the 15th century and it means to deprive of common or public rights or privileges or to make uncommon.
