A quick question about words like Realize and Civilize are the Z's still in use or has S taken over and it should be Civilise and Realise, just curious thanks

[FrogNog]

We use S in the UK

[Captain2]

English is, and always has been 'S' the Americans use the 'Z' (that's my take for what it's worth)

[Kaye-cd]

Oxford English Dictionary has them listed with the 'Z' as in Civilize (or Civilise)and Realize (or Realise)

Thanks, my Collins dictionary uses the Z, but normally see S being used, just wondered, thank again - Jean
