Lose a turn or miss a turn?
 
Hello there!!
Quick question!
I �m creating a board game and I �m not sure about one thing! Is it "Miss a turn" or "lose a turn"? because I �ve seen both and I don �t know if both are correct!

Thanks in advance!

I �m English and I �ve always heard "miss a turn"! "Lose a turn"  if you like, is very American!Do you want to use British English or A
merican English??!!
