𐌳𐌹𐍃-

Gothic

Etymology

Doublet of 𐍄𐍅𐌹𐍃- (twis-). Since the form lacks the expected effects of Grimm's law, it may be borrowed from or influenced by Latin dis-. Otherwise the voiced onset could be explained as irregular lenition in an unstressed syllable. The details are unclear. Cognate to German zer-.

Prefix

𐌳𐌹𐍃- • (dis-)

1. apart, asunder, dis-

   ‎𐌳𐌹𐍃- (dis-) + ‎𐍅𐌹𐌻𐍅𐌰𐌽 (wilwan, “to plunder, rob”) → ‎𐌳𐌹𐍃𐍅𐌹𐌻𐍅𐌰𐌽 (diswilwan, “to plunder completely, spoil”),
