Etymology

Uncertain. Possibly from a Vulgar Latin *disvocō, from *vocō, for Latin vacō (I empty, void). Compare rare, dialectal, or archaic Romanian dehoca, dezvoca, cf. also Sardinian bogare, debogada, Old French voiier, Occitan desboucà, most of which have senses pertaining to "take/bring out, extract, etc."[1]. Alternatively comparable or linked to Romanian desfăca, although this is less likely.

Verb

dizvoc (past participle dizvucatã)

  1. I tear something to shreds; dilapidate, damage, wreck
