Q. What is the plural of virus?
A. Viruses.
It is not viri, or (worse) virii. True, the word comes directly from Latin, but not all Latin words ending in -us have -i as their plural. Besides, viri is the Latin word for ‘men’ (plural of vir, “man,” the root of English virile). There is in fact no written attestation of a Latin plural of virus.
If you have some knowledge of linguistics and Latin, you might be interested in the morphological analysis of the word from the Perseus Project.

I *really* like my new clothes. Losing weight is a good thing… I figured it out – Garganticus and Foomy got shorts from George Foreman’s collection at the “Big and Tall” (or Looming and Vast, depending on how far you go… You could put a sharp dress suit on the Hulk right off the rack.)… my new pants and shorts are comfy, and I’m not “lost” in them anymore. It’s nice to have some shorts that fit properly. I picked up a nice linen tunic-looking jersey, too. (For days that I’d like to dress like Barney Rubble) I held back on the Hawaiian shirts…a bit expensive, and wasn’t what I was really there for. Maybe next time. It seems sort of feminine or at least “metrosexual” to be this happy about new clothes, but that’s what’s up. Small pleasures. Man, the prices online are horrid… either that or I stumbled into a lot of good sales.
Bro came by and borrowed a few DVDs. I hope I see them again. Five Deadly Venoms, Tank Girl, Titan AE, MechaGodzilla, and a few others. The only ones I’ll really miss are the badly dubbed kung fu and giant rubber monster movies. Upside, he was clean and pressed… either looking for work, or doing something where he’d have to look non-scrubby, anyhow. I’m happy to see him looking sharp and attentive to detail.
I would really like a multiplayer computer version of Car Wars online, akin to City of Heroes. It’d look a bit like CoH’s Boomtown, I think.
