The adjective discreet means prudently self-restrained or tactful. Discrete means distinct or separate.

"These two words, originally derived from the same Latin word, are pronounced identically and also share the idea of 'keeping apart.' But they have acquired quite different meanings. . . .

"Discreet is the more usual word and tends to be applied to people; discrete rather applies to ideas, categories, etc. and is found in more technical or impersonal contexts."

(Philip Gooden, Who's Whose: A No-Nonsense Guide to Easily Confused Words, Walker, 2004)
