Is it? Or is that a US spelling?

Raise and raze are two different words, whether you're talking about British English or American English.

They're pronounced exactly the same but have opposite meanings (one is to lift or build something, the other is to destroy).

so there meahh!

tomato tomato.

I like your history posts Petty, so I did a bit more reading about Clan Campbell and the Dukes of Argyll online, and I discovered that the current Duke is the captain of Scotland's national elephant polo team and a two-time world champion.

That's the opposite (different pronunciations, same meaning)

yeah, that was the joke, Eldo. Sarcasm.



{{Americans }}

The word raze predates America by several centuries so I'm not sure why you're bringing it up.

you still didn't get the joke... read again...

I got it, I just didn't think it was funny.

then why continue...? my jokes are seldom funny, they're so bad they're funny..

You think I have something better to do?

It's only ~7:30 PM here so I'm not going to fall asleep for a long time even if I wanted to. :lol:I dunno how productive I'll be in that time, though.
