128, 000, 000 for ResponsAble… :)

[Tamara]

Hi

One good British guy I communicate with (within some project) has the word 'responsable' in his signature… and I hesitate to ask him whether it just means resposIble.

When I google the 'word', I can enjoy seeing 128,000,000 (!) for Responsable.

When I think about the 'word', I must admit that the combination response' + 'able' looks as a quite logical formation. …even though it sounds a bit strange…

Could you validate that the 'word' does (not ) exist and
this is (not ) just a (very typical ) typo?

The fact that it is good Spanish and French may have something to do with the number of hits, even though it is bad English.

French and Spanish?
Ah... As I'm not a linguist, nor a natural polyglot:), I didn't suppose other (good ) languages...

Thank you, Mister Micawber!

The cynic in me had jumped to the conclusion that the 128,000,000 number is representative of (only) English-speakers who can't (or won't take the time to...) spell "responsible" correctly.

...and then I saw MM's response. LOL, hadn't thought of that.
