means A person's habitual mood or temperament — the characteristic way they tend to feel and react to things.
from From Latin dispositio, 'arrangement' or 'setting in order,' built from dis- ('apart') plus ponere ('to place'). It traveled through the idea of arranging parts into a whole — first used for arranging troops or elements, then for how one's inner 'parts' are arranged, giving us the sense of a settled mental or emotional makeup. The same root gives us 'position' and 'component' — all cousins in the business of placing things just so.
