Lol. Nah. It apparently follows the Italian standard of singular to plural, as concerti and virtuosi illustrate.

Would the singular of graffiti be vandalism?

I'm guessing graffitus, if it's Latin or graffito, if it's Italian. Graffito sounds better, so that's my answer!

Last night, I typed "supposively" and my mac tells me its misspelled. So I google it, and get results like this:

Quote:
When people say "supposively" instead of "supposedly," I want to pull my hair out.

Don't just make up words
Supposively you do this
Oh man you're stupive


Apparently, I'm borderline retarded. At least I don't say "supposably". Very Happy

To recap:
supposively = dumbazz
supposably = retard
supposedly = Queen's English

I suppose I support the substantial supposition that dick is a superlative speaker...but remember, the root of suppose, becomes
a suppository...careful what you wish for, and more careful what you make fun of
