Etymology of DIS PUTATIVE

The term "disputative" comes from the Latin word "disputativus", which is the present participle of the verb "disputare". The Latin word itself is a combination of "dis-" (meaning "apart" or "away") and "putare" (meaning "to reckon", "to consider", or "to think"). Therefore, "disputative" carries the idea of disagreement, contention or argumentation.
