The online dictionaries give the exact same pronunciation but I thought their pronunciation slightly differs. biz rather than ba.#5: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Mar 27, 2018
Easy peasy :)#6: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Mar 27, 2018
To #4: That is exactly how I pronounce them, too. I definitely wouldn't call them homophones, but they are very close. It would make a great pun or malapropism. I wonder how I could fit it into everyday conversation...#7: Kathy Cain (kathycain) on Mar 28, 2018
I used to wonder.... What is the noun form of bizarre? After all, something that is odd is an oddity. So what about the noun form of bizarre? I decided on a bizarism, with the accent on the first syllable.#8: Gary Webster (glwebste) on Mar 29, 2018
Bizarrement? Bizarrage? Any of them are, well ... strange.#9: Mat (keiimaster) on Mar 29, 2018
According to Merriam Webster it is Bizarreness.#10: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on Mar 31, 2018 [SPOILER]

Lol I thought it was going to be a scales scale, but I like bizarre bazaar better. Besides the two different kinds of scale are spelled the same. I thought those loops at the top might represent fish scales. Now I have to go back and look if the weight scale could even actually be a scale lol.
