A fissure is a deep, narrow crack, especially in rock or in the ground. Think of a mountain face with a dark line you could almost fall into, or dry earth that has pulled apart. Doctors also use it for a small, painful crack in skin — in Chinese the one people often meet first is 肛裂. Groups of people can have a fissure too: a deep split in a party or a family, said with a slightly formal, serious tone. There is a verb, to fissure, “to split,” but you will meet the noun far more. It is not a small surface scratch; the picture is something deep.
裂隙;裂縫
