> Just to extend the research list:
> - Merriam Webster also mentions "closeable" with an "e" =>
> http://east.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/closeable
> - I seached on http://www.krugle.org for closeable - 2804 matching
> files, closable - 2468 matching files
> 
> Anyway, fact is (probably):
> - closable - is the correct english word - but
> - closeable - is the idiomatic term in programming languages (mostly
> Java I guess)
> 
> So, my favorite spelling is,  uhm, .. eh, or is it my favourite
> spelling - you see with or without "u"?
> 
> Comme on, I think everbody immediatly understands both!

> +/- 1

> > After doing some research, the following information unfolded:
> > - two native speakers would write it without 'e'
> > - most online dictionaries including the Oxford dict only know

> > - unfortunately Java has the interface 'Closeable'
