The answer

UNTIE

What untie means

To unfasten or release something that has been tied, knotted, or bound together.

Where the word comes from

From Old English "untieian," where the prefix "un-" meaning "to reverse or undo" combines with "tie," itself from Old Norse "tíja" or related Germanic roots meaning "to bind." The prefix-verb pattern allowed speakers to easily form opposites, so "untie" simply became the natural word for reversing the action of tying.
