A rare American verb meaning to disband, disorganize, or break apart an organized structure. It is the reverse of 'organize' — used when an organization, group, or system is deliberately dismantled or rearranged into a less structured form. The word is not standard and 'disorganize' or 'dissolve' would typically be used instead. Encountered mainly in older American legal or administrative texts.
