Hello
Looking at the usage of "responsibility" I noticed that both "have responsibility" and "have a responsibility" are used. I wondered
1) if there is a difference in meaning between them, and
2) if there is a difference in usage as far as prepositions are concerned.
For example
Jenny, you have responsibility for clearing up the room after the class. (http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=67350&dict=CALD)1) Is it equally fine to say: Jenny, you have a responsibility to clear up the room after class.
2) And how about the difference between the following sentences. Are both grammatically acceptable?
Jenny, you have a responsibility
for clearning up the room after class.
Jenny, you have a responsibility
to clear up the room after class.
Your help is appreciated very much.
