To partially reduce from divine status or to make somewhat less god-like; to semi-divest of divine qualities.
From demi- (half) + deify (to make a god). Following the pattern of other demi- words, this creates a verb meaning to only partially or incompletely achieve the action of making divine.
Ancient Romans actually did this to emperors—they were considered partly human, partly divine. This word captures that weird in-between status where someone isn't quite a full god but definitely more than human, like demigods had to navigate.
