How Do You Spell PRISED?

Pronunciation: [pɹˈa͡ɪzd] (IPA)

The word "prised" is spelled with an "s" rather than a "z" because it is derived from the verb "prise", which is pronounced /praɪz/. The "z" sound is commonly found in words like "seize" (/siːz/) and "maze" (/meɪz/), while the "s" sound is found in words like "price" (/praɪs/) and "ice" (/aɪs/). Therefore, "prised" is spelled with an "s" to reflect its pronunciation, which is /praɪzd/. This spelling can cause confusion, as some people may assume it is spelled "prized".

PRISED Meaning and Definition

1. Prised is the past tense and past participle form of the verb "prise." The term "prise," pronounced as "praiz," is a variant spelling of the word "prize," which derives from the Old French word "prisier" meaning "to value" or "to praise."

   In English, "prised" is most commonly used in British English rather than American English. It can be defined as the action of using force or leverage to separate or remove something that is tightly fixed, firmly held, or tightly sealed. The term is often associated with the act of using a tool or one's physical strength to exert pressure or force, typically to open or remove something.

   For example, one could say, "He prised open the lid of the jam jar to access its contents." In this context, "prised" means that the individual used a tool or their strength to force the tightly sealed lid open.

   Overall, "prised" is a verb that conveys the idea of extracting or liberating something by applying physical effort or mechanical assistance. It implies the use of forcible or determined action to separate, free, or gain access to a tightly held or secured object or space.
