Better safe than sorry!?

<< < (2/3) > >>

xyle_one:
we have had the virus-virii debate on this forum before.

Laukev7:
First, I said PREFERRED, not obligatory. It is tolerated to say 'viruses', but 'virii' is considered better usage, as I've been taught in college. Don't blame me, I didn't create the English language.

If it is of any interest, in French it is considered good usage to use the French plural for foreign words. As such, we say << des spaghettis >>, while 'virus' as in << des virus >> is invariable. But since the main language of this Forum is English, it is best to follow the rules of the English language.

xyle_one:
if i knew another language, i would be sure to post only in that language, just to piss x11 off.   :D

xyle_one:
i would be better if actually knew the language(s).

M51DPS:
Could someone re-delete X11's posts and get this thread normal again? I agree, virii.
