--- Quote from: Aegir on 03 Nov 2009, 11:56 ---I know we're kind of off the subject, but I hate the way people use plural words as singular words and then pluralize them further. Two examples of this are "alumni" and "ravioli", which are both plural, the singular forms of which are "alumnus" and "raviolo". I hear "alumnis" and "raviolis" all the time.

That is why it drives me crazy to see shirts and bumper stickers saying Proud alumni of Such-and-Such University. I am an alumna, and I like to think my education taught me the difference between singular and plural words.

The bumper stickers might be accurate if the car contains two or more people.
