Origin

Late Middle English: from Old French scisme, via ecclesiastical Latin from Greek skhisma 'cleft', from skhizein 'to split'.

This goes back to Greek skhisma ‘cleft’ from skhizein ‘to split’. This is also the origin of schizophrenia (early 20th century) combining skhizein with phren ‘mind’, and of the rock called schist (late 18th century) which splits easily into layers.

Rhymes

abysm, arrivisme, chrism, chrisom, ism, prism
