Best Answer

The prefix dis- means negation, removal, or expulsion, when placed in front of "play" to form "display." In this sense, the word "play" means to move or flash quickly so as to make something appear and disappear. When dis- is added in front, the meaning changes to "to make a prominent exhibition of something."
