means A transparent solid, usually triangular, that bends light and splits white light into the spectrum of colors.
from From Greek 'prisma,' meaning 'something sawn off,' from the verb 'prizein,' to saw — naming the shape by the act that makes it, a wedge cut clean from a larger block. It entered scientific Latin and then English in the 16th–17th century, just as natural philosophers were getting curious about light and color.
