Discussion
Discipline is abandoning the non-virtues of body, speech, and mind. The Sanskrit word zIla means cool: discipline provides relief from the heat of the afflictions and the suffering that results from them. As it says in a verse:
As the body has no torments, Completely taking up discipline is bliss.
In the Treasury of Manifest Dharma, discipline is said to be equivalent to vows and Brahmic (or pure) conduct.
The English word discipline commonly also refers to diligence and other qualities. For this reason, zIla is often translated as morality, ethics, or a similar variation. However, discipline seems the most common translation, and one of the meanings given for the word discipline in the OED matches the specific Buddhist meaning, so this seems to be the preferable translation.
