Voitch!

What I've noticed is the people who have finally figured out the plural 
of criteria. If you guess that they establish one criteria but two 
criterion, you're right!

English plurals are so much fun. "Send me a mongoose. And while you are 
at it, send me another."

Does that Australian university also produce the indice, the vertice, 
and the matrice?
