+ ==Etymology==
+ It is formed [[af|la|dis-|sentiō|t1=apart|t2=to feel, think]].^(OLD 2012)^(Wiktionary)^(Etymonline) De Vaan traces ⟨sentiō⟩ to [[itc-pro|*sentije/o-]] and [[ine-pro|*sent-|t=to notice]], and compares [[lt|sintėti|t=to think]] and [[cu|сѧштъ|tr=sęštŭ|t=sensible, wise]].^(de Vaan 2008)

+ It is to differ in opinion, to disagree, usually with ⟨ab⟩, as Cicero's many schools of philosophers disagreeing among themselves.^(OLD 2012)^(Lewis & Short 1879) With a thing as subject it is to differ or be inconsistent, as when, in Cicero, the wording of a document differs from its intention.^(OLD 2012)

+ Church Latin glosses it “dissent, disagree, protest, object”.^(Stelten 1995) English [[m|en|dissent]] (mid-15th century) comes from it, partly through Old French.^(Etymonline)
