Etymology of DISSUASIONS
The word "dissuasions" is derived from the verb "dissuade".
The term "dissuade" originated from the Latin word "dissuadere", which is a conjunction of the prefix "dis-" (meaning "apart" or "away from") and the verb "suadere" (meaning "to advise" or "to urge"). "Suadere" itself can be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European root *swād- meaning "sweet" or "pleasing".
Over time, "dissuade" developed into a noun form by adding the suffix "-ion" (from Latin "-io(n)" and ultimately from the Proto-Indo-European suffix *-iH) to create "dissuasion".
