覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形 disqualify「資格を奪う、失格にする」の現在分詞・動名詞。語末の y をそのまま残して -ing を付け、disqualifying となる。disqualifying a candidate のように行為を表し、disqualifying evidence のような形容詞用法では「失格の原因となる」。単なる不合格より規則上の資格喪失を意識する。
Connect disqualifying with qualify, “to meet requirements,” and the reversing prefix dis-. The base verb is disqualify, and its final y remains unchanged before -ing: disqualify becomes disqualifying. In disqualifying a candidate, the word names the act of removing eligibility; in a disqualifying condition, it describes something that causes ineligibility. Picture a race official applying a rule or a committee excluding an entry for a documented violation. The focus is loss of eligibility under stated standards, not merely receiving a low score or failing informally.

disqualifying の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語の「dis-（否定）」＋「qualis（どのような）」＋「facere（する）」から成る。qualifyは「資格を与える」、disは打消しで「資格を奪う」意。関連語はqualify（資格を得る）、quality（品質）。
Disqualifying is formed from disqualify by adding -ing without changing the final y. Disqualify combines the negative or reversing prefix dis- with qualify. Qualify developed through French from Medieval Latin qualificare, formed from Latin qualis, “of what kind,” and facere, “to make.” It first concerned describing a quality and later acquired the sense of making or recognizing someone as fit. Disqualify reverses that eligibility or fitness.
