Adaption - another term for adaptation.

[jessaustin]

It's a perfectly cromulent word, but at the link only "adaptation" appears.

I was sure it wasn't a real word but you're correct, it's an alternative (but less common) spelling.

[ghkbrew]

"less common" is a bit of an understatement[0]. I'd put it in the "common misspelling" category. Though both versions seem to have been around since before English really had consistent spelling.

The page at the other end of the hyperlink uses the word "adaptation" twice and "adaption" never.
