Etymology
Disengagement comes from dis- meaning 'not' or 'undo' and engage meaning 'to join or be involved'. A helpful way to remember it is to imagine letting go of something you were holding on to, like leaving a project or stepping back from a person. So disengagement means a release or separation from an attachment, connection, or involvement.
