Dices

๐Ÿ‘€

"Dice" is already plural, "die" is singular.

It's like saying "geeses"

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 6 days ago

Dice can be used both as singular or plural tho

[-] Asetru@feddit.org 2 points 4 days ago

Of course it can. Just the same way I can refer to a table as "fish": by being wrong.

[-] Siethron@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

It's more like peoples. Dices means various collections and sizes of dice

[-] Asetru@feddit.org 2 points 6 days ago

What? No, it doesn't. People in that context is singular and means population of a country, so peoples is the proper plural for two of those. There's no superior plural that means "that plural but, like, even more of that". Otherwise you would end up with libraries that are filled with aisles that are just filled with shelves full of theses being called theseseseses.

I still dislike persons. I am all for bringing back ye though.
