How Do You Spell MASE?

Pronunciation: [mˈe͡ɪs] (IPA)

The spelling of the word "Mase" can be confusing due to its pronunciation. In IPA phonetic transcription, "Mase" can be written as /meɪs/. The phoneme /eɪ/ represents the diphthong sound of "ay" as in "day." The phoneme /s/ represents the voiceless alveolar sibilant sound of "s". Therefore, "Mase" is spelled with an "e" instead of an "a" to accurately represent the "ay" sound. It is important to pay attention to phonetic transcription to properly understand spelling and pronunciation of words.

MASE Meaning and Definition

  1. Mase, noun:

    1. A mace, typically spelled as 'mase' in older texts, refers to a medieval weapon characterized by a long, heavy wooden shaft with a spiked metal head. It was primarily used as a close-combat weapon by foot soldiers during the Middle Ages, particularly between the 12th and 16th centuries. The mase's primary function was to inflict crushing blows or puncture armor while providing the wielder with an extended reach advantage. Typically, the head of the mase featured either flanges or spikes, enhancing its effectiveness against armor.

    2. In modern usage, 'mase' may also refer to the stage moniker of American rapper and actor Mason Durell Betha, professionally known as Ma$e or Mase. He first gained prominence in the mid-1990s as a member of the Harlem-based hip-hop group Children of the Corn, subsequently becoming affiliated with Bad Boy Records. Mase achieved commercial success as a solo artist with his debut album "Harlem World" released in 1997, which featured hit singles like "Feel So Good" and "Lookin' At Me." Despite a brief hiatus from music, Mase returned to the music scene several times over the years and has maintained his influence in the rap industry.

Common Misspellings for MASE

Etymology of MASE

The word "mase" originates from the Old English term "masere", which was used to describe a small hammer or mallet. This Old English word can be traced back to the Middle Low German word "masse", meaning a "club" or a "mace". Ultimately, the Middle Low German term likely derived from the Old Saxon word "masa" or the Old High German word "masā", both of which meant "mace" or "hammer". The etymology of "mase" thus reveals its connection to the early medieval weapons and tools used for striking or crushing.
