French

Etymology

From Old French -iser, from earlier -izer, borrowed from Late Latin -izāre. Doublet of -oyer, which was inherited.

Spellings with s and z varied in Old French. The spelling with s follows the usual French convention of writing /z/ between vowels as s and was standardised by the Académie française in its dictionary of 1694.
