Definition
To remove shadows from; to illuminate or dispel darkness.
Etymology
From dis- (removal/reversal) + shadow. The word structure suggests a reversal of shadow (removing shadow/darkness). This appears to be a rare or archaic formation following standard English word-building patterns.
Kelly Says
This word is so rare it's almost mysterious—it suggests that Early Modern English speakers could create words almost freely using 'dis-' as a tool to reverse meaning. Most of these creative words disappeared, but some became permanent.
