Summary

Description
English: The Etymology of Disinformation by H.Newman as published in The Journal of Information Warfare (2022). Elements of the word disinformation have their origins in Proto-Indo-European language family. The Latin 'dis' and 'in' and can both be considered to have Proto-Indo-European roots, 'forma' is considerably more obscure. The green box highlights the origin 'forma' is uncertain, however, it may have its roots in the Aristotelean concept of μορφή (morphe) where something becomes a ‘thing’ when it has ‘form’ or substance.
