Word origin
The word 'discolorment' is derived from the verb 'discolor,' which originated in the late 16th century. The prefix 'dis-' indicates negation or reversal, while 'color' refers to the appearance or hue of something. Over time, 'discolorment' has come to represent both changes in skin pigmentation and the presence of stains or marks on surfaces.
