To disagree, clash, or fail to match; to create a discrepancy or contradiction.
From Latin 'discrepare' (to sound differently, to disagree), formed from 'dis-' (apart/not) and 'crepare' (to crack, creak, sound). Used in formal or technical writing to describe things that contradict.
This is a very rare verb in modern English—most people would say 'disagree' or 'conflict' instead. Its survival in technical and legal writing shows how specialized vocabularies preserve old Latin verbs that ordinary speech has abandoned.
