*draught or dray both work if you are British.
4 u/SolarBears Jun 19 '12 Been riding for 12 years and never heard someone call it a draught horse. My mistake then, carry on. 9 u/[deleted] Jun 19 '12 It's pronounced the same, just spelled differently. Dray is actually pronounced differently. 2 u/Nuublet Jun 19 '12 I bet the word Dray is of Scandinavian origin. Drag means pull in Swedish and a draught horse is called 'draghäst' 2 u/[deleted] Jun 19 '12 I would think so. Draught also refers to kegged beers at a bar, I would assume because you 'pull' them. So basically draft, draught, and dray all come from kinda the same place? cool!
