Could here be an additional joke from the old movie {{w|Raise the Titanic (film)}}?I'm not sure how this will be pronounced in different part of the English world, but could it be pronounced just like '''''Rice''' the Titanic''? That would be a joke where you do not need he title text to get it... (Which is usually the case - the title text often just adds and extra layer to the joke). --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 14:14, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

:That's impossible. ''Rice'' is /raɪs/ and ''raise'' is /reɪz/. Too many differences. An English speaker who hears ''rice'' when ''raise'' was pronounced is like another who hears ''chip'' when ''sheep'' was pronounced.

::There are so many weird English dialects. There's probably one in England (or more) where they say raise like Americans say rice. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.236.241|108.162.236.241]] 15:52, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
