disassemble
Break into pieces
To disassemble is to take something apart: disassemble the engine, disassemble the furniture for moving.
The word implies methodical separation into components, as opposed to destroying or breaking.
In computing, to disassemble is to convert machine code back into assembly language.
Figuratively, critics may disassemble an argument by examining its parts.
