In the English language, the standard plural of virus is viruses. This is
the most frequently occurring form of the plural, and refers to both a biological virus and a computer virus. The less frequent variations viri and virii are virtually unknown in edited prose, and no major dictionary recognizes them as alternative forms. Their occurrence can be variously attributed to hypercorrection formed by analogy to Latin plurals such as alumni or false analogy to Latin plurals such as radii; idiosyncratic use as jargon among a group, such as computer hackers; and deliberate word play, such as on BBSs (see, e.g.: leet). To complicate matters further, viri is already used in Latin as the plural of vir, meaning "man" (thus making viri mean "men") ;-) Tom "JoAnn Paules" wrote in message ... | All over the web.

Once there was an elephant,
Who tried to use the telephant-- No! no! I mean an elephone Who tried to use the telephone-- (Dear me! I am not certain quite That even now I've got it right.) Howe'er it was, he got his trunk Entangled in the telephunk; The more he tried to get it free, The louder buzzed the telephee-- I fear I'd better drop the song Of elephop and telephong!) - "Eletelephony" Laura E.

Old habits die hard. I also use the terms termini and radii. And I rarely
ever use the term vir any longer. I used to work for a civil engineering firm. Deeds would often say "et vir" or "et ux" (or "et uxor") for "and husband" or "and wife".

Virus, in Latin, is a masculine noun, and thus becomes viri (single "i" ending) in plural. For it to have double "i" plural, it would need to have the singular form "--ius", as in "radius". However, in English, the "--es" plural ending should be used - thus viruses. Similarly, a university or college may have a number of campuses rather than campi and certainly never campii. Other than that, your advice is, as always, exemplary! Patricius .... errrr .... Paddy |

Actually, "virus" is not a second-declension noun in Latin; it is fourth. As
