Etymology of UNCOUPLED

The word "uncoupled" is derived from the prefix "un-" and the verb "couple".

The prefix "un-" is of Germanic origin and has the meaning "not" or "opposite of", indicating the reversal or negation of the action that follows.

The verb "couple" comes from the Old French word "copuler", which is derived from the Latin word "copulare", meaning "to join together". The Latin word is a combination of "co-" (meaning "together") and "apula" (meaning "a small rod"). "Couple" originally referred to putting two or more animals together with a yoke or harness so they could work together.

When "un-" is added to "couple", it forms "uncouple", which means to separate or disconnect two things that are joined or coupled together.
