It’s Wonderful Word Wednesday again! Do you as a writer ever struggle finding that perfect word to describe something or you want to shake your writing up with some new words? Each Wednesday I post hand-picked descriptive words for writers and other vocabulary nerds out there. 😉
Schism
noun
1.) division or disunion, especially into mutually opposed parties.
2.) the parties so formed.
3.) Ecclesiastical.
a formal division within, or separation from, a church or religious body over some doctrinal difference.
