dismay

dismay: [13] The underlying meaning of dismay is ‘deprive of power’ – its second syllable is ultimately the same word as the verb may. It comes via Old French desmaier from Vulgar Latin *dismagāre ‘deprive of power’, a compound verb formed from the prefix dis- ‘un-’ and the borrowed Germanic base *mag- ‘power, ability’ (source of English may).=> may

dismay (v.)

late 13c., dismaien, from Old French *desmaier (attested only in past participle dismaye), from Latin de- intensive prefix + Old French esmaier \"to trouble, disturb,\" from Vulgar Latin *exmagare \"divest of power or ability\" (source of Italian smagare \"to weaken, dismay, discourage\"), from ex- (see ex-) + Germanic stem *mag- \"power, ability\" (cognates: Old High German magen \"to be powerful or able;\" see may (v.)). Spanish desmayer \"to be dispirited\" is a loan word from Old French. Related: Dismayed; dismaying.

dismay (n.)

c. 1300, from dismay (v.).
