Almost certainly soft. Maybe some wealthy eccentric would frame their house in expensive hard wood as a flex, but wood framed construction is almost exclusively softwood. It grows much more quickly, is easier to work with, and is plenty strong. I wouldn’t frame a house in anything but good old-reliable Douglas Fir.

I think by definition a woody is hard

Indeed

Innit?

As a Briton who is throughly bilingual in units and mixes them liberally, Fahrenheit is just about the only one that reliably confuses me. In the past tabloids would put cold temperatures in Celsius and hot temperatures in Fahrenheit to make them sound more impressive but that’s not really a thing these days.

To be fair I can kind of get it if I’d grown up with it, zero is ‘I need my foul weather gear on’ and 100 is ‘bloody hot summers day’ which on a human level beats the Celsius zero is ‘water freezes’ and 100 is ‘you are dead’ but the convenience of water freezing at zero is just too much.

Correct
