Etymology

[ 'si-z&r ] (noun.) 15th century. c.1350–1400 Middle English sisoures Old French cisoires Vulgar Latin *cīsōria, plural of Late Latin cīsōrium (“cutting tool”) (compare chisel); from Latin word root -cīsus (compare excise) or cæsus, past participle of cædere (“to cut”). * Current spelling, from the 16th century, is by association with Medieval Latin scissor (“tailor”), from Latin carrying the meaning “carver, cutter”, from scindere (“to split”).
