Usage Note
Disconoscimento (m) is the act of officially denying or repudiating something — often rights, paternity, or authorship: il disconoscimento di paternità ('denial of paternity'). The verb is disconoscere ('to disavow, to deny recognition'). Do not confuse with riconoscimento ('recognition'), which is its direct antonym.
