A quick definition of disparagement:

Disparagement is when someone says something bad or untrue about another person, thing, or business. It can be comparing something unfavorably to something else, saying mean things about someone's reputation, or spreading lies that hurt someone's business. Disparagement can cause harm and even financial loss. It can also mean treating someone with disrespect or making them feel ashamed. In the past, disparagement was also used to describe when someone of high social status married someone of lower social status.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Disparagement refers to the act of belittling or criticizing someone or something unfairly or untruthfully. It can also refer to a false and damaging statement that harms the reputation of a person, product, or business.

  • When the politician made a disparaging remark about his opponent's intelligence, he was engaging in disparagement.
  • The company's sales suffered after a competitor spread false rumors about the quality of their products, which is an example of trade disparagement.
  • By calling her coworker lazy and incompetent, the boss was guilty of workplace disparagement.

These examples illustrate how disparagement can take many forms, from personal attacks to false statements that harm a business's reputation. In each case, the goal is to undermine or damage the target's reputation or credibility.
