  1. rase

    There seems to be a mistake. The term "rase" doesn't exist. You may be referring to "razed", which means completely destroy (a building, town, or other site), or "race" which refers to a competition of speed or a categorization of humans based on shared physical or social qualities, or "raise" which means to lift or move something to a higher position or to increase the amount or level of something. Please provide more context.
