Hapsburg or Habsburg - which is more commonly used?
- Six of one...I think the p has an edge in English, but not necessarily "right" - JHK
Google sez:
Habsburg 32,100
Hapsburg 16,400
And that includes filtering for pages in English only. -- Paul Drye
The correct form is definitely "Habsburg". The "p" is an error derived from the hardness of the German pronunciation. No Habsburg would ever have called him/herself a Hapsburg.
