My fitness to 'practice' or 'practise' my eminent profession?

[ScummyMummy]

Need to write an evaluation of the above. Handbook says practise- is it correct?

practise is verb, practice is noun afair, so handbook is right.

awaits correction...

i think[but not experienced pedant mind] that practice is the noun and practise is the verb so yes "fitness to practise".

that's right.
It's the same as "advice" and "advise" which is easier to remember

Practise is verb - I find it helpful to think of it like the difference between advice and advise - the noun (advice / practice) has a c, the verb (advise, practise) has an s.

Thanks, mileniwmffalcon.

and basking shark and Tommy and Aniyan. That's good advice(!) re thinking of Advice/Advise. Find it much easier to grasp that distinction, for some reason.

great minds

Oh I was just thinking about this. I know that a legal practice, for example, has a second C. But I always used to get confused about how it applies to e.g. music.
"I am practising..." has an S, fair enough - but what about "I am doing my violin practice/se"? Does that still get a C because of being a noun, or is the rule different there - anyone know?

What about

Displaying 'Best Practise' or is it C?

By no means am I a pedant, but I would think it should be "Best Practice"

Displaying best practice.

I find it helps to think of advise and advice - you wouldn't say displaying best advise so you don't say displaying best practise either.
