[edit] Crase

'Crase' is a misspelling. It is the Portuguese word for 'Crasis'. Whoever wrote this entry must not have been aware of that. I have created a new stub for 'Crasis', which I have also defined more accurately and generally. I have also edited the old link to 'Crase' in the entry on the 'Grave Accent', which now directs to 'Crasis'. 193.136.232.3 12:37, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Redirect to Crasis (if this misspelling is common enough) or Delete. --Syrthiss 13:30, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

I do not think it is a common misspelling for English-speaking people. Only a Portuguese-speaking person would write 'crase' instead of 'crasis'. The word 'crase' does exist in English, but it has a completely different meaning. Regards.
