Servise vs. Service: The Correct Spellings

"Service" has several other forms, such as the verb "serve," the adjective "serviceable," and the adverb "serviceably." A simple trick to remember the correct spelling is to think of the word "ice," as in "serv-ice." This will help you recall the correct "i-c-e" ending, making sure you don't mistakenly write it as "servise."

The correct spelling of the term is "service," not "servise." The misspelling "servise" adds an unnecessary "i" instead of the correct "i-c-e" ending. The word "service" comes from the Old French "servise," which is ultimately derived from the Latin "servitium," meaning slavery or servitude. This root highlights the word's original association with duty and obligation.
