Osteoarthritis is a condition where tissue between the joints is worn out leading to the bones touching when they should not.
arthrosis is a joint, an area where two bones are attached for the purpose of motion of body parts. An arthrosis (joint) is usually formed of fibrous connective tissue and cartilage.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that is more the result of wear and tear accidental joint damage and broken bones. however they are both reffed to as rheumatism. If you insisted on there being a difference you could separate osteoarthritis being a noninflammatory disease as arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis being a autoimmune disease as rheumatism.
Arthritis is any one of over a hundred different forms of disease that affect the joints of the body with pain damage stiffens deformity and other problems.
