Do you say “ take the draws” or take the drawing” for the raffle ticket ?

The most natural thing to say here is ‘win the/a raffle’ or ‘win the/a raffle prize’. In my experience, there are usually many winners. I won one of the raffle prizes - a T-shirt. He won the car at the raffle. If you really want to talk about the drawing: ‘The treasurer drew a raffle ticket. I was surprised when she called my number.’ I left before the drawing, so I wasn’t eligible to win the door prize. Your expressions sound very old-fashioned and awkward.

For a raffle ticket, the correct phrase is: "Take the drawing." Drawing refers to the event or process where the winning raffle ticket is chosen. Draws is less common and usually refers to multiple selections or outcomes (e.g., "She won several draws today"). So, you would say: "Are you going to take part in the drawing?" "They announced the drawing at 7 PM." Let me know if you'd like more examples! 😊

The correct phrase is usually "take the drawing" when referring to participating in the raffle process or event where winners are selected. If you're referring to picking the tickets to determine winners, you might say "conduct the draw" or "take the draw." For clarity: * "Drawing" refers to the event of selecting winners. * "Draw" refers to the act or process of selecting the tickets.

For a raffle ticket, the correct phrase would typically be **"take the drawing."** - **Drawing** refers to the act of selecting a winner from the tickets or entries. For example: *"The drawing will be held at 5 PM."* - **Draws** is less commonly used in this context and might cause confusion, as it is more often associated with art or sports (e.g., a tied game). If you mean participating in the event, you could say: *"Take part in the drawing" or "enter the drawing."*
