Etymology: "Deglamorises" is the third-person singular present of a verb formed from "glamour," the prefix "de-" (removal or reversal), and the suffix "-ise." "Glamour" began as a Scots variant of "grammar," and in that older sense it meant a spell or enchantment, so to deglamorise something is to strip away the magic of its appeal.
