This should probably be 'parentheses' with an e. Parenthesis refers to a word or phrase inserted as an explanation or afterthought into a passage which is grammatically complete without it, in writing usually marked off by brackets ( parentheses), dashes, or commas.

A parenthesis is a word or phrase which is inserted as an explanation or afterthought into a sentence. Typically, the sentence would make grammatical sense without the parenthesis.
Parentheses are usually marked off by brackets, dashes, or commas.
For example, Jane's class was the biggest in the school (with 30 pupils) and often had to sit on the floor in assembly.
