To remove a yoke from; to free from bondage, servitude, or constraint; to separate animals or people joined together.
From dis- (removal/reversal) + yoke (from Old English geoc, meaning a wooden frame joining animals together). The prefix indicates removal or liberation.
A 'yoke' is literally the wooden frame that harnesses oxen together, but metaphorically it means servitude or oppression. Disyoking is profoundly about liberation—serfs dreamed of being disyoked from feudal obligation.
