just watching a travel TV show and the word DISPORA has been mentioned, in the text
...traces the steps of this DISPORA from the motherland.....

Not in my version of Chambers or OD!

Any advice

they probably mean DIASPORA which refers to the dispersed/displaced people living in other lands originating from a specific place eg the Jewish diaspora living in countries other than historic Israel
