'That word' (below-hyperlinked to the compilation I found) is built on an even-deeper source ... something crucial that firms the foundation upon which our lexicon stands ...
The word “Sketches” (here meaning 'a Short Play or Performance, usually Comic) is built on ancient words that mean "a Form, |Shape, |Appearance (see |Scheme)" (with possible ties to words that mean "to Splash, |Squirt"; |Brief Account, Essential Facts of, to |Draw an |Outline with Partial |Shading, Un|finished).

The word “Skits” (a |Light |Piece of Satire or |Caricature, from the earlier sense of 'a Satirical |Remark or Reflection) is built on ancient words that mean "to |Shoot, Move |Quickly (see |Skittish)" (related to |Shy, |Caper, |Frolic like 'a Vain, |Frivolous, |Wanton Girl' (the meaning of the original Scottish)).

The official difference between the two is basically 'a "skit" is more like "a catchphrase or punchline," while a "sketch" has a beginning, a middle & an end.'
I usually 'tag' the Twitter-profiles of the sites I link to; but–when I looked-up 'Difference Between' on Twitter–I found "DifferenceBetween.us" & "DifferenceBetween.net," but no "DifferenceBetween.com."
