Pronounce raze

[Traab]

Is it raise? Or razz as in raspberry? Or, for all I know, pronounced like crazy without the c?

[Emperor Ing]

It's "raise"

[Calen]

Like raise, maybe a little more of the "z".

[Dallas-Dakota]

Around here it's pronounced like ''Raiz''.

[Worira]

Exactly the same as "raise".

[Traab]

I thought so but I wanted to be sure. Thanks for the confirmation guys. I know its not a classic word to argue over like forte but it was bugging me a bit. :smalltongue:

It would probably have been faster to use google to find an online dictionary than to make a thread, wait for a response and then just assume random people on the internet with no authority on the matter are correct.

I timed myself and it took me 12 seconds to find this

It's always confusing though because it sounds like "let's raise this building to the ground".
