   What is the difference between Confab and conflab?

   • "Confab" is clearly the original abbreviation and appears in significantly more works of reference than "conflab", which seems to be a later corruption of "confab" and has become the more used variation in recent years, possibly because of the additional connotation of "flab"-biness or looseness/informality of the conversation in question.
