What's the difference between jail and gaol?
== == I've checked on some dictionaries: it seems that the two words have an identical meaning: 1) prison 2) confinement in a prison (while 'to jail' means moreover "to put in prison"). They come from latin "cavea" (from which also comes "cage"), but in different ways: 'gaol' (originally pronunced with hard 'g') by the Anglo-Norman French 'gaole', 'jail' by the Old French 'jaiole'. Probably American English has mantained the only 'jail' as its pronunciation is far nearer to the written form of the word!!
