Discord में 'cord' है, जो दिल से जुड़ा है, जैसे cordial (दिल से) में। जब दिल न मिलें तो dis-cord, यानी मतभेद; जब मिलें तो concord या accord। Strife और conflict इसी के साथी हैं।

Discord carries 'cord', from the old word for heart, as in cordial (heartfelt). When hearts do not agree, there is dis-cord; when they agree, there is concord or accord. So discord means disagreement and strife between people.

Exam note

Strife, conflict, dissension, friction and tumult appear as synonyms; harmony, concord, accord and agreement are the antonyms. 'An apple of discord' is a fixed idiom for the root cause of a quarrel.
