disciplina
/disθiˈplina/ · B2 · noun · f
discipline
📚 Same root as disciple: Latin disciplina, what a pupil is taught
Latin discipulus (pupil) comes from discere (to learn). Disciplina was first the teaching itself, then the order that comes with training. That's why it also means a subject of study. In Spain, the c sounds like th: dis-thi-PLEE-na.
