Not genuine, authentic, or real; fake or fraudulent in character.
From dis- (prefix meaning 'not') + authentic (from Greek authentikos, 'original'). This is a modern formation, likely from 20th-century academic or philosophical discourse.
This word is increasingly used in discussions about 'fake news' and social media—something can be 'disauthentic' not just because it's false, but because it seems inauthentic or designed to mislead rather than inform.
