Origin
The word "disperse" originates from the Latin word "dispersus," which is the past participle of the verb "dispergere." "Dispergere" means "to scatter, disperse, or spread out." The Latin prefix "dis-" means "apart, away, or asunder," and "spargere" means "to scatter or sow." The Proto-Indo-European root *sperǵ- is related to the Greek word "speírein" (to scatter), the Sanskrit word "sphurati" (to tremble or startle), and the English word "spurt."
