Like Peter, I've just toastised in preparation for Vegemite, and now I'm
about to coffeeize my first latte of the day :-)

Well, there you go. Looks like a licence to -ise or -ize anything you
like. I'm off to toastize a couple of crumpets and get grumpy over
being found out as an old grumpised pedant.
Apparently the New York Times is to blame. And here I was thinking
Trump couldn't get anything right....

The churches have the word 'laicise' (or 'laicize'). Introducing the

atw: New skill set required
I noticed just today that a position is available for a Technical writer
to laymanise information.
Having missed my Certificate IV course on Laymanisation, I'm wondering
if anyone can let me know where I can possibly get some tutorialisation in
this new field.
Meanwhile, would appreciate all suggestions on other skills that may
have slipped by me. I think I need some refreshering.
