Hello Lija,
It depends on where you hail from. The 's' forms of such words are the
traditional spellings. The 'z' spellings come from the reforms of the
American lexicographer, Noah Webster. Since the mid-19th century, the 'z'
forms are considered to be the standard for American-English. The 's' forms
continue to be standard in the British commonwealth generally, although I
believe that the American forms are gaining currency.
