Dis-n-Dat

Many English words have ‘dis’ in at the beginning to indicate a ‘not’ condition (Dissatisfied means “not satisfied“, or Disregard means, “to not give regard“, or even Disqualify means “no longer qualified“, etc).

Here is my spin on what these words would really mean… well… to me, anyway! Enjoy…. or Disenjoy!
