Hello,The british-ize dictionary correctly accepts organize, organization, catalyse, analysis, but it wrongly accepts analyze and rejects analyse. Analyze is an American word.
The Oxford English dictionary prefers -ize over -ise, so it prefers organize from organise. However, -yse is the only British option, -yze is American. This is also described in wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/-ise I do not know if there are any similar words which are checked incorrectly. How do I make the british-ize dictionary accept analyse and reject analyze? Thank you. Trevor Spiteri -- Trevor Spiteri <address@hidden> http://tspiteri.org/
