discomfit

Inglés

discomfit
pronunciación (AFI)	[dɪsˈkʌmfɪt]

Etimología

Del francés antiguo desconfit, pasado participio de desconfire, del prefijo des- y confire, a su vez del latín dis- y conficere, de cōnficiō, del prefijo con- y faciō ('hacer'), del protoitálico *fak-i-, y este del protoindoeuropeo *dʰeh₁- ('poner'), *dʰh₁-k- ('hacer').

Su significado de 'avergonzar' y 'desconcertar' vino de la confusión con el inconexo discomfort.
