Pronunciation & Spelling
All these words end in the spelling chunk -tism, pronounced /ˌtɪzəm/ with secondary stress, so they rhyme with separatism. Beware of similar-looking -ism words such as optimism (/ˈɑːptɪmɪzəm/) and pessimism (/ˈpɛsɪmɪzəm/): their suffix is not /tɪzəm/, so they do not rhyme with the -tism group.
