Concerning "parametrized" vs "parameterized"
On 12 Feb 2008, at 11:21 pm, Wolfgang Jeltsch asked:
What spelling is more common?
Strictly speaking, there is no such word in English as "parametrized".
There is no general morphological rule "Xer => Xrized" in English.
The only spelling accepted by the OED is "parameterized",
which annoys me because I prefer the -ise- spelling.
Amusingly, one of the quotations in the www.oed.com entry for
"parameterized" actually spells it "parametrized"; I don't know whether
the source had it that way or whether the data entry error was at the
OED.
