Defence V Defense

So you spell licence with an s? Google it
Ummm if I'm talking about it in the correct tense yes.....Google it

Licence is a noun as in "my driver's licence"

Lisense is a verb as in "I need to license my trailer"

If you are using "licence" for both you are committing a grammar error, if you are using "lisense" for both you are American.

Under the queens English both spellings are words

It's ok, to be wrong both will work as people will know what you mean, however if you want to use this amazing language with which you were gifted correctly, there is only one correct way
 
Oh and to help those out who are still noodling this out a noun is a name or title and a verb is an action or a "doing word"

You're obviously on a different page to myself. As mentioned in the thread opener I was merely talking about defence v defense and licence v license (meaning driver's licence) this got way out of control 🙂

I suppose that assumes to whom one is talking.
