Possibly SoP, probably not all: "higher criticism or historical criticism, as distinguished from textual criticism or verbal criticism, the inquiry into the composition, date, and authenticity of the books of Scripture, from historical and literary considerations."

Syllables edit

I'm not sure I agree, but this source says criticism has 3 syllables because syllables only count when pronouncing a vowel. However, this page is listed under Category:English_4-syllable_words. Moose Hole (talk) 20:53, 9 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

/ˈkɹɪtɪsɪzəm/ has four vowels including a schwa. Equinox 16:22, 10 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
