    This is a proposal to retire the word analyse in favor of analyze.

    British -yse vs American -yze. \”Analyze\” is simpler and phonetic.

    Analyze and analyse: both are correct. Both are taught. Neither is confusing to learners.

    Retiring one spelling of a word because another English-speaking country spells it differently is linguistic imperialism by another name. Vote No.
