Limitation to the singular

edit

The OED contends that “limitation to the singular is strictly relevant only in the context of ancient Greek drama." The deuteragonist ( δευτεραγωνιστής) and tritagonist ( τριταγωνιστής) take parts of second and third importance. --Backinstadiums (talk) 16:21, 23 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

You can have a plural even there: two different Greek dramas have two different protagonists. Equinox 16:32, 23 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
