Note to self: when converting a document from British to American spelling, do not just automatically replace all instances of `ise’ with `ize!’

It is English spelling, you might upset the Celtic p’s and q’s over here.
ise- as in “Internet Simplified English”
Never intermingle; eg. chisel my nizzle
On phonetics-eg.
“How do you recognis(z)e speech” pronounce How do you wreck a nic(z)e beach.
We need more zed vords that begin with z. the last letter of ze alphabet always ends up in the penultimate position of a word.
Ah things are never simple. Best of luck for everyone involved in the project.
And for that, we have Noah Webster to thank:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noah_Webster#Speller_and_dictionary
It was his Speller and Dictionary that created the Americanized spellings of words like center, honor, and analyze.
Apparently, the same spelling simplification debate is going on now (or recently) in Portuguese, according to my Brazilian friends. Can any Portuguese speakers confirm?
Good luck on the paper, Kevin!
Yes a tricky excercize 😉
Good luck.
