False

The Tagalog word for "respondents" is "mga respondente."

It depends on why the respondents were supposed to appear.

Archibald Hope has written:

'Andrew Wauchope, Esquire, -- appellant. Sir Archibald Hope, Baronet, and Captain John Macdowal, ---- respondents. The respondents case'

'Andrew Wauchope of Niddry, Esq; - appellant. Sir Archibald Hope, Bart. and Captain John Macdowal, ---- respondents. Case of the respondents'

Riddles generally need responses from the respondents. In the event that the respondents do not have the answer to the riddle they are supposed to give the questioner a reward.
