Same as Practice vs Practise.

Sorry Lewis, a driver's licence is still a "driver's licence" not a "driver's license" here in Australia. You are correct regarding license being a verb (a doing word as I was taught at school). When it comes to spelling and grammar, I don't need to look at Google to check facts, I consult my wife who has a 1st class honours degree from Sydney University in English Literature and Biblical Hebrew. At least one of has to have some brains, I'm just the one who does the doing stuff.
Better check your spelling as well Lewis i.e. " This does NOT hold true in the American ba.stardised English Standard Only English Grammar." unless "stardised was meant to be a pun ?
