vasevase: [17] Latin vās meant a ‘dish’ or ‘vessel’ (its diminutive forms vāsculum and vāscellum have given English vascular [17] and vessel respectively). It passed into English via French vase, and at first was pronounced to rhyme with base. This pronunciation survives in American English, but in Britain since the 19th century vase has been rhymed with bores (now defunct) and bars (the present-day way of saying the word).=> vascular, vesselvase (n.)late 14c., from Old French vas, vase "receptacle, container," from Latin vas (plural vasa) "container, vessel." American English preserves the original English pronunciation (Swift rhymes it with face, Byron with place and grace), while British English shifted mid-19c. to preference for a pronunciation that rhymes with bras."
