Not trying to be insulting, just a friendly tip :-)

It raises the question, begging the question is something different.

The funny thing is that "begging the question" is itself a mistranslation, so I really can't fault people for thinking it means what it literally means. (Throw in the fact that literally now literally means 'not literally'...)

Language is a mess.
