Did I miss something. (sorta-kinda-not really math related)

I’ve lived all my life in the USA, and I use both pronunciations:

“DE-fense” is what you yell when you want your football or basketball team to stop the opponent from scoring.

“De-FENSE” is what the armed forces are tasked with providing to the nation.

Right. I should have made clear that i was talking only about the sporting term.

In Australia and the UK, the defence in sport (rugby, soccer, etc.) is called de-FENCE, just like the military one.

I was watching a spoof documentary on youtube set in england about the british school system ( or something.) Can’t remember. Not important.

Dollars to donuts it was Look Around You.
