Wymawiane jako (IPA)

/dəˈmɒl.ɪʃ/

Etymologia (Angielski)

Attested since the 16th century; from Middle French demoliss-, the stem of some conjugated forms of the verb demolir (“to destroy”, “to tear down”), from Latin dēmōlior (“I tear down”). Displaced native Old English tōweorpan (literally “to throw apart”).
