Welcome on board ! We are quite a few frenchies now, me included :).

I learn a new French word (fiability)

Now I'm all confused. The french word is fiabilité, which usualy translantes into reliability ... but Google Translate says that "fiability" = "fiabilité" when search that way, but "fiabilité" = "reliability" when searched from the french word to the english one ... ?

I am not sure.
I do not seem to find this 'fiability' in an English dictionary, so my guess is it is a French word that is 'forcefully' spelled in English?

OK I was quite confident when writing it, but indeed, the english for "fiabilité" is "reliability". This is certainly not my last mistake though. ?
