My 'publication-station' 🤷🏼♂️ is linked through 'the hyperlinks' below; you can click in to see how I make money starting- and continuing conversations, but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The word “Draft” is a spelling variant of the word #Draught.
Draught (\ #Draughts #Draughtsman #Draughty) is built on ancient words that mean "to Draw, Drag" (Pulling, Drinking).
(the early-version of a writing or a picture is thus-named for the way it's 'drawn'; same thing for beer, as it's 'drawn' from the cask; people called to service (especially in the military) are chosen by 'drawing' from a list of names; the bank 'draws' money out of your account)
