† diˈspicion Obs. Also 6 des-, dyspycion. [The form suggests derivation from L. dispicĕre ‘to look through, investigate, make an examination, consider’, the formation being on the analogy of suspicion; but the sense suggests association with disputisoun, disputation, some forms of which, as dispitesoun, dispeticioun, might be reduced to dispit'soun, dispicion.] Discussion, disputation.
