REPARABLE OR REPAIRABLE ?

Dear people,
which do you think is the correct one? Is it reparable or repairable?
The answer is :
REPARABLE NOT REPAIRABLE
haha.. This has been one of the common mistakes made by most of the people nowadays. I admit it too as before,I was absolutely sure that the correct spelling is repairable. However, Mr. Yeo, my dear english proficiency lecturer spotted our mistakes. Only then I changed my mind :) Although the noun is being spelled as REPAIR but for + able, the correct noun should be REPARABLE.
We are just normal human being. We learn from our mistakes :)
