Yes, depreciation. I can see deprecation but I'm not sure where the extra I comes from

[Mamyalynne]

Depreciation

disparagement: a communication that belittles somebody or something

[Rossie47]

Thanks all

[factor-fiction]

Thanks mamyalynne but I still don't get it.

I could see deprecation (disparagement) and I could see depreciation (fall in value) but I don't see how we get from one to the other.

Am I on the wrong track?

[Mamyalynne]

Depreciation also means disparagement

Thanks- I hadn't realised that deprecate and depreciate can mean the same thing
