Authorised VS. Authorized

Post by coolio »

Well I have found a bad grammatical error in this forum and the old one:

In several places we've got the word authorised when it should be authorized

Look it up in a dictionary if you don't believe me.
Here are the correct forms:

- authorise
- authorized
- authorization
BTW, please take no offense at this post. I was simply trying to help.

Shame it's staying authorised isn't it ... I hardly call it "bad" and I did take offence ;)

EDIT: And a little hint ... look at what language this is listed as.

How about making Braille the default language? :) No, no, Sanskrit!

I know... Old English! "Thou shalt enter thine message yonder; it shalt not containe one charactere more than nine-thousand nini-hundred and ninety-nine."
