So, -Ha' dosn't has one rather than all meanings? Then what does -Ha' mean?

moHaq "dis-" QIjmeH 'ej yajmeH Hut pImwI' ghaj mu'ghomwIj.
1a: do the opposite of : reverse (a specified action)
1b: deprive of (a specified character, quality, or rank
: deprive of (a specified object)
1c: exclude or expel from
2: opposite of : contrary to : absence of
3: not
4: completely
5: [by folk etymology] : = dys-
Meaning 2 lists at least two distinct meanings. "Absence of" and "opposite
of, contrary to" are not the same thing at all. Only about half of these
meanings are similar to "opposite of". So, "dis-" sometimes means "opposite of".
"Dishate" made me think of the "absence of" meaning, not the "opposite of" one.
[Some of these meanings are part of the meaning of verbal suffix type rover
{-Ha'}, but again, not all of them.]
