Apparently, 'defence' comes from the Old French word 'defens', which in turns comes from the Late Latin 'defensum', so I'd say the British spelling is more inconsistent here. --- What's the difference between a pickpocket and a peeping tom?

Scroll down a bit. vice often US vise / (vas) / noun an appliance for holding an object while work is done upon it, usually having a pair of jaws verb (tr) to grip (something) with or as if with a vice To be honest, as a Brit, I hadn't even heard of "vise". I can't say I care much about this change either way. I'd prefer the British spelling since I'm more used to it, but it's such a minor thing. <cite>luigi13579 posted [p:931973199] in Why did th...
