Definition
To refuse to give someone credit for something; to discount or disregard someone's claims.
Etymology
From prefix dis- (opposite of) + compt/count (from Latin computare). An archaic variant of 'discount' that was used in earlier English, particularly in financial and legal contexts.
Kelly Says
This is a beautifully archaic word—it appears in Elizabethan documents and legal texts, and it's the direct ancestor of our modern 'discount.' Language evolution made 'discount' the standard form, leaving 'discompt' as a historical curiosity.
