			It'd be pronounced both, really. Japanese kind of has that L's and R's are the same letter thing, just leaning a bit more toward R in the pronunciation while still being accepted as both. So "Ree-zuh" would be the most accurate. And it could be from "Reserve (リザーブ, Ree-zahb)," but one of (yes, there's more than one) the spellings for the English word "Resurrect" starts with リザ in Japan, the other starting with レザ (Reh-zah). Asian languages just generally handle western languages terribly is what it comes down to. Even the word "bullet" has like 5 different spellings, one of them matching with "barrette." —[[User:EnigmaticRepose\|EnigmaticRepose]] ([[User talk:EnigmaticRepose#top\|talk]]) 04:34, 6 August 2013 (CDT)

			Thank you for helping to find out what "rez" meant. But I have a question. リザ would be pronounced "ree-zuh" or "lee-zuh", leading one to assume the meaning "reserve". but "rez" is pronounced "reh-zuh". Is this just Engrish here?

	Some Em dashes(—) need spacing before or after according to the situation. They should not be confused with hyphens(-) which need no spacing before or after. Thanks.

			I actually disagree with that, but I don't really care enough usually to even fix the differences of hyphens or em/en dashes. If you can cite a source of information supporting that it needs space, I'd be welcome to see it as I'm always up for a good English lesson. Googling some citations that support the non-space use are [http://www.grammarbook.com/punctuation/dashes.asp GrammarBook] and [http://www.scribendi.com/advice/using_dashes.en.html Scribendi], though. Plus I always see Em Dashes in media used either always without spaces, or singular ones with spaces before and after (example: (—) or ( — ), the latter being usually when used by itself). The only time I've seen (—　) used is when a sentence is cut off, but I find it can be used without the space as well. Then again, said novels are using UK English when I pretty much solely use American English. Not being an English major probably plays a part in this somewhere, too.

			Also, here's a fun quote I found about it while getting said examples:
			"The dash is less formal than the semicolon, which makes it more attractive; it enhances conversational tone; and . . . it is capable of quite subtle effects.
			The main reason people use it, however, is that they know you can't use it wrongly."
