    Etimoloji

    [ dE-'bä-k&l, -'ba-; &d ] (noun.) 1802. From French débâcle from débâcler (“to unbar; unleash”) from prefix dé- (“un-”) + bâcler (“to dash, bind, bar, block”) from Middle French from Old French bâcler, bacler "to hold in place, prop a door or window open" from Middle Dutch bakkelen "to freeze artificially, lock in place" from bakken "to stick, stick hard, glue together". Also attested in Old French desbacler "to clear a harbour by getting ships unloaded to make room for incoming ships with lading" and in Occitan baclar "to close". Modern sense of "bar, block" stems from influence from Latin baculum (“staff”). The word débâcle is first attested in the early 19th century.
